The meek shall not inherit this earth. Greatness is achieved through unrelenting vision and effort, not cowering to the twin insipidities of public approval and self-doubt. On this day in Minot, a few seem to grasp that truth. The craftsmen at Magic City Hoagies offer no banal sustenance – their Picnic hoagie is a brutalist monument of summer sausage and hearty toppings. And at the Farmers Market, the growers and bakers trade in unvarnished products of the soil and oven, unsullied by industrial adulteration.
While the masses fritter away this National Upsy Daisy Day craving reassurance from their “best friends,” the spiritual descendant of the Stoddard Temple waits to be built by those who neither ask nor offer compromise. Its columns will be forged from the steel of singular purpose, open to any who have conquered themselves, implacable to the rest. On this day, the first faint rumblings of its construction can be sensed.
