“I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. ’Tis the business of little minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death.” ~Thomas Paine (1737-1809), American journalist and patriot “The wisdom of age” / Cindy La Ferle __________ As always, you are welcome to share my posts on social media.
