True?

Get money — but stop once in a while to figure what it is costing you to get it.  No man gets it without giving something in return.  The wise man gives his labor and ability.  The fool gives his life.

From Becky Good:

Would it be possible for you to put in the blog the fact that we are having a food drive at Legacy for our neediest families?

We’re actually doing a giveaway Sunday the 22nd so if people wanted to drop off food between now and Friday the 20th we’d appreciate it. It could be anything from a turkey to peanut butter to apples. I think apples keep for a while don’t they? 

Thank you for this consideration. See you Sunday online!
