"Sigue sintiendo la necesidad de ser importante. Sigue sintiendo la necesidad de ser el primero. Pero quiero que seas el primero en amor. Quiero que seas el primero en excelencia moral. Quiero que seas el primero en generosidad."
— Martin Luther King Jr.

Simplified Meaning:
People often want to be the best and feel important in life. These feelings can push them to work hard and succeed. But instead of just aiming to be the top in things like sports, school, or a job, it's more valuable to lead with love, do the right thing, and be generous. For example, if someone is always helping others and spreading kindness, they make a significant impact on their community. A person who acts with integrity and gives without expecting anything in return is truly admirable. By focusing on these qualities, they become a leader in a much more meaningful way than just being the best at ordinary achievements.
