Interesting Quote for Today
“It’s not all sunshine and rainbows, but a good amount of it actually is.” ~Unknown
Only hard boiled eggs spin. Soft boiled eggs and raw eggs do not spin like hard-boiled eggs do mainly because of their liquid inside. Hard-boiled eggs spin faster and more equally because the yolk inside is hard.
Thought For The Week
Sometimes we forget or underestimate the difference one can make. The following reflection makes a lot of sense with a lovely finish.
The Difference One Can Make
One song can spark a moment,
One tree can start a forest,
One bird can herald spring,
One smile begins a friendship,
One star can guide a ship at sea,
One vote can change a nation,
One sunbeam lights up a room,
One candle wipes out darkness,
One laugh will lift sadness,
One step must start each journey,
One word must start each prayer,
One touch can show you care,
One heart can know what’s true,
One life can make the difference,
The one is you and it’s up to you.
