I couldn’t find a good video from this year’s CNN Heroes Tribute. But this is from last year’s celebration. It still inspires me every time. If you’ve never watched footage from this tribute either year, please do yourself a favor and go check it out. This is my favorite scene from any one yet. “Serve. Serve well. Serve others above yourself, and be happy to...
