Fairy tales are more than true-not because they tell us dragons exist, but because they tell us dragons can be beaten.

Whatever good work you do, you’re bound to face problems and obstacles. Therefore, it’s important to check your motivation. It helps to be truthful and honest. If what you do is good for others, it’ll be good for you too. Once you know your goal can be reached, you should try to follow it through to the end. Then, even if you don’t achieve it, at least you’ll have no cause for regret.
Why is the sea salty??
After years and years of river inflow and evaporation, the*saltcontent of the lake water built up to the present levels. The same process made the*seas salty. Rivers carry dissolved salts to the ocean. Water evaporates from the oceans to fall again as rain and to feed the rivers, but the salts remain in the ocean.
How salty is the ocean????
If the salt in the sea could be removed and spread evenly over the Earth's land surface it would form a layer more than 500 feet thick, about the height of a 40-story office building.*
So this got me thinking. (and yes it's hurting)....
If salt can't evaporate but it's still being added from the rivers, will the ocean eventually be to salty to sustain life??

Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs, honor your creator, not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high, but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself, right now, right down here on Earth.

Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now. Realize that nothing is too good. Allow absolutely nothing to hamper you or hold you up in any way.

In the old days, it was not called the 'holiday season'
The christians called it christmas,and went to church
the jews called it Hanukka, and went to synagogue
the Atheists went to parties and drank,
People passing each other in the street would say "Merry christmas" or "happy hanukka" or " watch out for that wall"

He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a tree.
