"I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do, I should do."
Some food for thought from a homesteading Quaker living in that beautiful part of Sweden called Småland.

Hey, Hay!
ReplyDeleteI thought this meant "There's Quakers here!" like "¡Hay Quakers de aquí!" That's not such a reassuring claim to someone who professes to know and love Quakers, but I'll try to live with it.
Love what you post!! Keep up the good work and I won't hold being a Quaker against ya. Love RicHIe
