The highest reward for a person’s toil is not what they get for it, but what they become by it. -John Ruskin
Initially, it seems weird or arrogant to think that working on Real Joe makes me a better man. But it could be. Maybe it’s having another voice of conscience in my head, or just the awareness that others are reading what I’m writing — and that that places more responsibility on me to be a better dad, a better husband, a better citizen.
