All our fret and worry is caused by calculating without God.

Oswald Chambers

And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good.

Genesis 1:31
The English Standard Version

If I had my life to live over, I would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. I would go to more dances. I would ride more merry-go-rounds. I would pick more daisies.

Nadine Stair
