Edith Schaeffer quotes about
short-life years today
We foolish mortals sometimes live through years not realizing how short life is, and that TODAY is your life.
inspirational geography-and-history choices
What are your choices? Whom are your choices for? Not just for yourself. Chose now whom you will serve, and that choice is going to affect the next generation, and the next generation, and the next. Choice never affects just one person alone. It goes on and on and the effect goes out into geography and history. You are part of history and your choices become part of history.
announce beat chance change conversation drums events excited impressed life meet memory sort spend stop week
The thing about real life is that important events dont announce themselves. Trumpets dont blow, drums dont beat to let you know you are going to meet the most important person youve ever met, or read the most important thing you are ever going to read, or have the most important conversation you are ever going to have, or spend the most important week you are ever going to spend. Usually something that is going to change your whole life is a memory before you can stop and be impressed about it. You dont usually have a chance to get excited about that sort of thingahead of time!
