  • Citizens for East Shore Parks Remarks by Robert Cheasty
    Citizens for East Shore Parks Remarks by Robert Cheasty, President On the Occasion of the Dedication of the Berkeley Meadow Honoring Sylvia McLaughlin & Dwight Steele Dwight and Sylvia are friends to all of us here today and benefactors to our entire society. Great deeds are not casually done. They require a lifetime of preparation and an heroic level of commitment to making a difference. Many make contributions. That is the way of great and thriving societies. Whole democracies are built around those who contribute. They are the safe harbors that gather the rest of us, that provide the infrastructure for community, that provide the confidence and security for commerce, education, the growth and nuturance of our children and the arts. And I call upon us all to bless these contributors for the interruptions of their lives to give something back to their communities. But then there are those who rise above contribution. There are those for whom who a contribution is just a wake up call, for whom contribution just whets the appetite for seeing what is really possible. There are those who, in borrowed words, ask not why the world is the way it is but why it is not the way it could be. And this then becomes the fulcrum for the changes they seek. These brave souls begin to realize what it means to overcome the 30,000 foot elevations where true societal change is made. For most just survival is all one can muster at that height. For the visionaries who change our society, 30,000 feet is where you get to work.
