A little better

I have a few friends who live in Asheville, North Carolina. They’ve been top of mind and close to heart for the past week.

Frank, a painter, has begun what will be a long journey in resurrecting Marshall High Studios — a historic brick schoolhouse that houses twenty-six artists’ studios. The building was hit hard by flood waters.

Frank’s mantra of late: “This is a little better.”

Bailing water, shoveling mud from hallways, removing debris — all of it together seems insurmountable. But making a small bit of progress here and there starts to make a significant impact.

Consistently working for “a little better” is how we move toward a lot better.
