I just came across this quote, and thought it was a great one for today, or any day.....

My God! How little do my countrymen know what precious blessings they are in possession of, and which no other people on earth enjoy! ~Thomas Jefferson

Well, if you say quotes from the past you'll get crickets here. They'll tell you its not 1776 and that those quotes and actions called for do not apply to current day situations. This is why we are where we are in this civilization. I do like this quote and agree whole heartedly with it. Its too easy to forget where we came from and especially the "how we got here"!

Just remember, the hotter the temp, the faster the cricket chirps.

We got here through a river a blood, and seeing things now it seems that river is parched of thirst!
