Freckles' Thought for this day...

The service we render to others is really the rent we pay for our room on this earth. It is obvious that man is himself a traveler; that the purpose of this world is not 'to have and to hold' but 'to give and to serve.'

Sir Wilfred Grenfell, 1865-1940
English Medical Missionary

You know. I can believe this. Some people want it all, I suppose, but something as small as love outshines it all.

Love does outshine. We as a society need to be more in tune with uplifting and encouraging each other. especially us. well anyway. this passage stroked mein a special way.

I like this thought. In world of "Gotta look out for #1" its nice to think people still care about serving others as part of their reason to be here.
