Found a cool quote

"If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be." John Heywood (1497-1580)
I like it. Of course even in 1497, it probably wasn't an original idea but he worded it nicely. I like the "develops some latent force within you" part. It makes me think of a jedi in training. :P Anyway, I found it while trying to figure out where the quote "Many hands make light work" came from exactly. John Heywood is given credit for that quote in addition to ones like: "Haste maketh waste," "Beggars should be no choosers," "This hitteth the nail on the head" (according to wikipedia anyway). So: "A penny for your thought" and I hope "All is well that ends well."

Natural Foods rant

Why is "natural food" so expensive? Seriously, it is very frustrating! I love nuts, blueberries, fruit in general. I can get a candy bar for less 50 cents, but a granola bar is at least a dollar (and that is for a cheap thing that is oats and sugar. Anyway, good, healthy fresh foods are more expensive to harvest, ship and store--all that stuff--it is just frustrating :/
I hope you are having a wonderful day--enjoy looking at the free nature around you!
