“I shall pass this way but once …”

“I shall pass this way but once; any good that I can do or any kindness I can show to any human being; let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.”

— Etienne de Grellet, Quaker missionary



Happy Fourth of July, Folks.

Have fun and be safe.
