A thought-provoking insight from Helen Keller, who was born deaf, dumb and blind:

Make today another day to focus your commitment on the obvious, but mostly invisible, laws of nature.

The dog’s kennel is not the place to keep a sausage“. — Danish Proverb

Life is like this. But, the obvious becomes invisible. This quote? I think it’s the “tip of the iceberg” in our oblivion. Carpe diem, jeff 🙂
