“The one who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.” (Chinese Proverb) A reader of WWs suggests that he needs more of the positive proverbs. As a follow up to yesterday’s quote on the value of self-discipline, I’ve chosen this one on the value of persistence. Most of us who want to remove a mountain, first look for a bulldozer. The small-stone-idea seems to be positively more realistic. ;-) Jack

FROM N.L. IN FLORIDA: Sorry about all the snow you have been getting this year including the new ice bergs on the great lakes.

FROM G.C. IN SAN DIEGO: May you and Mary have a positive and blessed Ash Wed!
