We are not butterflies, to flutter a little while in the air and then drop into the dust. The words we speak and the things we do are not snowflakes dropping into the water, "a moment white, then gone forever," but are the beginnings of immortalities. We are not done with anything in life as it passes from our hands. Nothing is indifferent. There is a moral character in all that we do. Either we are blessing the world, or sowing the seed of a curse on those around us. It becomes us, therefore, to give conscientious thought to our entire life. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
