Expedition

I'm going on an expedition this Friday, and its holiday after that!

Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict.- William Ellery Channing

Something to ponder

"There are seven sins in the world: wealth without work; pleasure without conscience; knowledge without character; commerce without morality; science without humanity; worship without sacrifice; politics without principle."

Mohandas Gandhi

Quotation of The Day

"Don't be fooled by the calendar. There are only as many days in the year as you make use of. One man gets only a week's value out of a year while another man gets a full year's value out of a week."

Charles Richards

I like this quote because it reminds us that what matters is what we choose to do in life, not how long we have been alive.
