"You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you."
—John Bunyan
Selfless Athlete Surrenders Spotlight
Chase O'Brien, a 17-year-old athlete from the Yukon, handed over a golden opportunity to his friend. Having qualified for the Arctic Winter Games for the second time, Chase decided to let his friend, Gallagher D'Abramo, compete in his place. Not only had D'Abramo previously missed out on the games, but this was also his last chance to participate due to age restrictions. Chase notes, "I felt like our friendship was more important than the race, so I decided to just let it go." His compassionate gesture not only brightened his friend's life, but also reinforced the value of camaraderie over competition.
BE THE CHANGE
Prioritize a friendship over personal gain by giving up something for a friend this week. It could be as simple as giving them your place in line, or as significant as surrendering an opportunity to them.
