Guess I am getting older




Life does not lack for things to think about. One question might be for all our thinking "what are we becoming". It may be the case that no amount of thinking will ever help us know what we really have become.
*
Nevertheless Solomon said, "with all thy getting get understanding" Proverbs 4:7 .......................maybe that is a better way to look at "thinking"?

Gordon B. Hinckley wrote a very good book called "Stand For Something". He said in the introduction of chapter 8 that "Gratitude was a sign of Maturity".**********

"Gratitude is the beginning of civility, of decency and goodness,
of a recognition that we cannot afford to be arrogant.
We should walk with the knowledge
that we will need help every step of the way".

**** I can tell that I am getting older.
