 Bob Nakata:
Hopefully without being immodest, I was amazed at Ming's portrait of me. It revealed a wise person of great but reserved power. I now understand why people have wanted me to step forward as a leader, why they want me to lead. My self image has been of a quiet and somewhat aloof personality whom few would be inspired to follow. The portrait has helped me to accept myself as a leader and accept leadership as a gift from God, to be used judiciously for good. I guess that is how I have used it. Rev.
