~Richard Byrd
My goal is to go to the grave (many, many, many years from now) empty. I want to have dreams fulfilled, purpose met, sights seen, family close, foods tasted, abilities developed. I don’t want to have any missed opportunities.
Or any missed laughs.
Amen.

Mine’s sad this week. But real. So very REAL. Perhaps a bit raw too.

HI Tabitha,
Very strong and introspective quote.
I had read along time back- that man in all his life time and with all his resources at the most optimum of his life only uses 3% of his God given intelligence.
Just imagine in just 3% we have gone to the moon and mars and created this civilization…if we could actually tap into more of our God given intelligence how far would we go??
