Isn't the Universe strange? A positive thing, like Newman's salad dressing profits, is out into the ethos and it changes into something far greater? We never know how our lives will be used to serve the greater good until we venture forth. Paul Newman took the pain of his life and it didn't save his son but it helped many other suffering people. Thanks for giving me something to think about today.

Delay not! The day that is gone never returns. Invaluable time is slipping away. Devote your days to the endeavor to draw close to the Lord of the Humble. When extreme old age supervenes, you will be too sluggish, too feeble to concentrate on God’s name. How will you then make up for what you failed to do in good time?
