One of my sons, when he was quite small, would be just sitting there and I would ask him, “Whatcha doin?” And he’d say, “Oh, I’m just thinkin’ ’bout things.” So, today’s show might be me, conveying to you, that I’ve just been thinkin’ about things. Sitting and thinking is good for us, don’t you agree? I attended a grandson’s high school graduation this weekend and one of the comments that the Valedictorian made in her speech, to encourage looking at the future paths ahead, was: “Failure is not fatal and Success is not final.” I don’t think it was an original thought BUT it was a good thought and a “keep on keeping on” thought… like… Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Liberty!
