Wishing all you fellows out there a happy Father’s Day, especially mine, who also celebrated his birthday on Tuesday and will get extra gifts on Sunday. Happy birthday to my honey, who is sweeter than real honey.
I do hope all you men and fathers have a blessed Father’s Day. Men built institutions so that 400 years later their descendants can say, “That’s what he left?” The world needs the kind of institutions men can build, whether it is business to be managed, a school to be staffed, an organization to be advanced, or a service to be carried out.
Men want more from the world than a gold watch and a fond memory. They want to build more than a nest egg. Women, let’s help them today to become better fathers on Sunday and throughout the year.
“Men are not tired of living; they are tired of not living.”
I have a short column this week for good reasons and a few quotes to hold you until next week.
“Faith without work cannot be called faith.”
“Faith is not believing, trying, or hoping. It is the knowing by which you do. Faith develops endurance to face the trials without being tempted to stop.”
“Your life is the only true measure of your faith.”
“When you don’t have a grip on life, it will definitely get a grip on you.”
“All roads lead to the end.”
“If you can learn to be a hole in the wall, things will happen through you, not to you.” – John Randolph Price
Nothing ever happens to a hole in the wall. Everything passes through it. Things happen around it. Things happen above it and below it, but the hole remains the same. Even if the hole is covered it remains, never losing its identity, doing what it was created to do. Nothing gets stuck in a hole in the wall.
Everything comes into the hole. Nothing stays in the hole; the hole defines itself by being a hole. Things come to the hole in the wall – light, air, darkness, sound. It takes from everything that comes and willingly allows everything to go.
