Cardinal truths continued If we don’t mind our business, others will mind our business We voluntarily become slaves to some people Counting blessings is tough for humans…it’s the reason we are always unhappy We are a lot more violent mentally, than we realize We think hard only in serious crises…otherwise we skim through life without […]
Fighting against odds The most beautiful thing in the world for me is a person’s valiant struggle against all odds whether that person succeeds or not!
