Bob Marley, legendary Jamaican singer, activist and
humanitarian, was shot in a terrifying attack on his home by gunmen in 1976,
only two days before a concert organized by the Jamaican Prime Minister in
order to ease tensions between warring political groups. Marley’s wife and
manager were both seriously wounded in the attack and Marley himself received
minor wounds in the chest and arm. Despite all this, Bob went on to play that
concert, claiming “The people who are trying to make this world worse aren’t
taking a day off. How can I?” Think about that the next time you want to knock
off work early to chill at the beach. Of course, I’m guessing that Bob had some
help fighting through the pain thanks to some, uh, special medicine.
