Greatness

             -Wendy MacNaughton

Behind every great person there is someone who enabled his or her ascension. These friends, relatives, partners, muses, colleagues, coaches, assistants, lovers, teachers, and caretakers deserve some of the credit. When you consider your own life, there are dozens of people who have guided you along your path — whether a teacher from fourth form who finally got you to raise your hand in class, a family friend who gave you your first camera, or that whiskey-sipping uncle who’d tell you stories. These relationships shape our lives, some lightly and others with more impact.

Quite often we don't realise that the loving and staunch support of other people is one of the greatest privileges. And for many people we’ve come to celebrate as geniuses, such human support was precisely what made their achievements possible.
