That was the exact same quote I was drawn to. Rob,this was a fascinating read. Lately, I've been hearing quotes similar to these--or at least noticing them. Always inspirational when you're feeling failure might be imminent. Karen, I didn’t see your comment before I read the letter. That was the exact same quote I was drawn to.

I loved the lines following your quote. "We are sent to this world to acquire a personality and a character to take with us that can never be taken from us. Those who just eat and sleep, prosper and procreate, are no better than animals if all their lives they are at peace." That made me stop and think. I think I agree with him. I just recently heard Beth Moore say that God is in the business of making our lives a great story. Great stories are never the boring ones full of peace. They are the ones with hairpin curves and near misses. She is right. Rob, I thought this very moving indeed!! I loved the lines following your quote.
