A Nation Yesterday

“A nation that does not remember what it was yesterday, does not know what it is today, nor what it is trying to do. We are trying to do a futile thing if we don’t know where we have come from, or what we have been about.”

Woodrow Wilson

History

“History, by apprizing them of the past, will enable them to judge of the future.”

Thomas Jefferson

Apprizing; n. the act of valuing under authority

Sow a thought

“Sow a thought and you reap an action; sow an act and you reap a habit; sow a habit and you reap a character; sow a character and you reap a destiny.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Afflicted Man

“The truest help we can render an afflicted man is not to take his burden from him, but to call out his best energy, that he may be able to bear the burden.”

Phillips Brooks

Hope

For if there is surely hope

I was definitely a dope

To be so blind

And not so kind

To be so stupid

Not to recognize cupid

To get so stressed

Then to get so blessed

To have God replace my blindness

With an act of kindness

To bless me kindly

With my family finally!!!
