As the Sabbath begins this week it is a much different environment than last Friday - last week the warmth of the fire helped drive out the chill in the air, this week the A/C is on pushing back against the 80 degree temperatures outside.

As I sit here at the beginning of the Sabbath enjoying the fire and sipping peach tea I am reminded of the route attributed to Albert Einstein "Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value. He is considered successful in our day who gets more out of life than he puts in. But a man of value will give more than he receives," and I contemplate how I can add value to the world. Abraham Lincoln stated it another way when he said "I want it said of me by those who knew me best that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower wherever I thought a flower would grow." What kind of thistle plucker/flower planter am I?
