The Deeper Things of Life

I'm pondering the deeper things of life like: Why is it that when there is a spoon in the sink the water from the faucet always hits it?
So true.
But, o.k., how about this? "If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live under tyranny." Thomas Jefferson `1778 I'm always amazed at the insight that the Founding Fathers had.
Or, how about this: "Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, and look well to thy herds: For riches are not for ever: and doth the crown endure to every generation?
The hay appeareth, and the tender grass showeth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.
The lambs are for thy clothing, and the goats are the price of the field.
And thou shalt have goats' milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and for the maintenance for thy maidens." Proverbs 27:23-27 This has always been true, and maybe knowing this has even been taken for granted at times. But, do you see a need to take note of this today?
