03/04/2023: Happy Birthday Time Magazine
Time magazine celebrated its 100th birthday on March 3rd.
We’re coming up on the 30th anniversary of my first professional byline on March 22, 1993. Tanks to Joelle Attinger, John Stacks, Sam Gwynne, Jonathan Beaty and Jill Smolowe for that first shot:
It was not for a few months that I’d get a top byline (the vestige of the old Time system where writers were one class of person and reporters were another).

A few things 51 years have taught me:
1. Mean people suck
2. It’s easy to be nice
3. Everyone has at least one gift and one burden.
4. The greater the gift the heavier the burden is to bear.
5. You have no idea what burdens the people around you bear so don’t judge them.— RandomWhiteGuy 📖 Heretic & Disheveled Misfit (@TheReelRandom) August 10, 2018
Everyone has at least one gift and one burden. It is hard to find the gift in some people. See the gift, ease the burden.
