Here’s a great quote
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

Some I can do, some I wish I could do (and hope to someday learn), and, honestly, some I have no interest in doing!
(What at great quote! I really enjoy your blog, John!)
Thanks Christy,
I’ve actually done most of those things. Kind of fun to realize that! Need to work on that sonnet, though. take care.
Isn’t that the truth! Great quote.
