This morning's prompt is 'mother'.

(From last year) Buckminster Fuller came up in a post today: People like Buckie make me believe in a benevolent agency, perhaps spiritual, perhaps the manifestation of the creative and empathetic side of our natures, as opposed to the violent, selfish and domineering side. We will always object to being bossed around, especially by jerks who don't have any talent for it, nor any idea how to get the job done.

True leadership is not about (just) getting people (to want) to do your will, it is about getting people working together for some purpose, convinced or assured that they matter, that they can contribute, that they are needed. That was Buckminster Fuller's story and his message.
