Winning Being Last

from This Awkward Life · host Eric Adcock

The story of Frank Buckles reminds us that being last isn’t always a loss. Sometimes endurance becomes the testimony. In a world obsessed with being first, his life shows that time can become our greatest ally — shaping wisdom, preserving stories, and proving that lasting through the years still matters.
