So True

"...the reason for our existence on this planet is to establish a relationship with the Person who placed us here. Until that relationship is established, all of our attempts to attain happiness---our quests for recognition, for money, for power, for the perfect marriage, or the ideal marriage, for all that we spend our lives seeking---will always fall short, will never quite satisfy the longing, fill the void, quell the restlessness, or make us happy....God cannot give us happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing."-- C.S. Lewis

  1. Mr. Lewis was one smart cookie there. I have a couple of his books. Way over my head, but sometimes you find some real good stuff. Heard about your job change up. I can imagine how rough this next semester will be.
