Don't overlook me fellow Lions. I'm the Lions Pin I'm right up here, put the spotlight on me because I'm proud to play a part in the lives of men and women who wear me as a symbol of service to the community. I've witnessed excitement, sadness and happiness. I've been with the wearer as eyes of deceased Lions were transported for deposit in the Eye Bank. I was there too as I watched the hungry fed and the destitute cared for. I've seen the Guide Dog for the blind instill in a blind person a new confidence as they move about their sightless world. I've heard the hearts of the disabled pounding with joy when Lions visit them, I've seen and heard the laughter of children in camps enjoying recreational facilities and leadership provided by Lions. Yes, I've traveled all over the world and can recall thousands of incidents diverted from sadness to gladness because those who wore me made it so. I am a Symbol of Service to the World. Wear me with pride. If I could talk, I'd be too filled with emotional pride to say more than: "Thank you and may God bless and protect you."
