It seems we live in a day and age where man’s heart is harder than the man-made stone of the encroaching concrete. Instead of thanking God for a disaster passing from our midst, we claim it as our just due. When a disaster does occur, we tend to shake our fists angrily at God. Hardly grateful when times are good, it seems our nature to be greedy for better and better.

Blind Trust is a dangerous thing. Even God does not require blind Trust of us. Why should corrupt leaders?
Blind Trust – totally different than Faith. To have Faith, one must Trust something first.
Blind Trust is for a helpless child who has no defenses and no other choice. It is not for an adult with a brain.

Put riches in stock
the gold stored within the heart
truest investment.

The brown soil turns more and more
gray every day.
The blue waters turn more and more
brown every day.
The green money looks more and more
green every day.

The easiest way to put a bad man into office is to run another bad one against him.

The richest people
are the happiest people
because they are the same people
who are grateful people.

Surely the Mysteries of Life are the grandest part of life. To know all would surely destroy life. It is like the human element of hope. To have nothing to hope for – nothing to attain or wish for – destroys the very element. To destroy the Mysteries of Life or even to put a scientific spin on them is akin to winning a game and calling it done, or to be bored in the 1st grade with a genius intelligence already. The Mysteries of Life are the wonderment to the child – the spirit that anything can happen and everything is magical.
