The
headlines that vied for top place this week seemed to be the new Star Wars
Movie, including the multimillion dollar pay cheque that Harrison Ford
received, and the mistake made at the Miss Universe Pageant. The fairness
of both stories have been debated by the masses.
In
Ford’s case it seems that he may have been paid as much as 50 x more than some
of his co-stars to revive his role as Hans Solo.
On
Sunday night Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez wiped away tears of joy when she
was named Miss Universe 2015, the second year in a row her country had won the
title. But the $30,000 blue diamond and topaz crown remained on her head
for less than two minutes before host Steve Harvey realized he had made a
mistake, the actual winner was Miss Philippines Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach.
First
World problems.
And
while we can’t do anything about the inequities of Star War pay cheques or
beauty pageant heartbreak the Cornerstone family has dug deep and will help cap
4 fresh water springs in the Democratic Republic of Congo. And for the
thousands of families in the DRC who will now have access to clean drinking
water I would suspect that is much more important news. Have a great week and remember: To see what is really possible, you
will have to attempt the impossible
