"The highest reward for a (wo)man's toil is not what (s)he gets for it, but rather what (s)he becomes by it." -American Way
"Life is a jungle. Only the fit survive. And among the ones who do, those who sense danger and know the techniques of self-defense come through in the best condition." ~ an excerpt from Charles Swindoll's book The Quest for Character.
The publishers state, "The Quest for Character launches you on a lifelong journey - a relentless pursuit of integrity and inner strength. Swindoll calls you back to life's core issues: honesty, purity, courage, conviction, compromise, sincerity, determined love, and 'deep-water faith.' The deep down stuff that determines who you really are." (emphasis added)
For the next few weeks I'll share what I'm learning from this wonderful book. My quest for character has been, and will continue to be, to find understanding and wisdom while living in this treacherous jungle.
"Listen, my son (daughter), and be wise, and set your heart on the right path" Proverbs 23:19
