A quote that explains almost everything

Hello and a wonderful sunday everybody,

today a real "quickie".


Many short quotes are extremely powerful.

Here's one that explains almost everything . . .


"God makes oranges.
God doesn't make orange juice."

Reverend Jesse Jackson

May you all make the perfect orange juice in your life from the countless oranges which rain and shine onto your life´s path frequently.

Take care and with my best wishes for a great start into the week,

Christopher Columbus

Dear friends,

At a banquet put on for Christopher Columbus shortly
after returning from his discovery of the Americas,
one of the guests challenged Columbus by saying that
"Anyone could have found the Americas"
and that Columbus had no "Special Skills to help him
achieve his historical find."

Columbus picked up a hard boiled egg from the table,
and asked the gentleman in question if he could balance
the egg on its narrow top. The guest tried unsuccessfully,
by now the whole table had joined in, and all the guests
took a turn at balancing the egg on its narrow top.

When they had all declared that it was an impossible task,
Columbus took the egg, and tapped it gentle on the table,
cracking the tip of the egg and flattening it a little.

He then balanced the egg on the table.

There was an uproar, all the guests claiming that any one
of them could have also tapped the top of the egg to balance it.

Columbus replied that it was similar to discovering a New World,
that although we are all capable,
few actually use their knowledge to reach their goals.



As this post might you remind of some very important knowledge you might not have used for quite some time i wish you fun and lots of magnetic driving energy to enjoy life and feel your special peace of mind being a unique and wonderful person on this planet !

Take care
