A Speech From Muhammad Ali
I was watching youtube shorts, that is what we do on our mobile phones —just entertain ourselves. While endlessly scrolling I came to a video where an interviewer asks a question,
Interviewer:
“At the end of your life, whether it was Allah who was saying it, Eliaj Mohammad, or whether it was something that someone wrote about you after you had gone what the things you most like people to say about your life? He was a great champion or what?”
Mohammad Ali:
“I like for them to say,
He took a few cups of love.
He took one tablespoon of patience,
One teaspoon of generosity,
One pint of Kindness,
He took one quart of laughter,
One pinch of concern,
And then he mixed willingness with happiness.
He added lots of faith and he stirred it up well and
Then he spread it, over a span of a lifetime and he served it to them each and every deserved person”
I was shocking the power of each word he was saying. Loved it.
