The featured guest on our local radio talk show was a woman who owned a home-cleaning service.
After she described what her clients could expect, the program's telephone lines were opened to the audience. The first caller struck to the heart of every woman who had ever contemplated employing such a service.
Her question: "How much cleaning do I have to do before your people come?"
"A great many of those who 'debunk' traditional values have in the background values of their own which they believe to be immune from the debunking process."
- C.S. Lewis
Joy is something to be lived - not something only to be felt.

John, a neighbor of mine, was annoyed because he had to search for his newspaper each morning after the paperboy tossed it. Often he would find it, covered with dirt, under the car in the gravel driveway. Then one-day the paperboy's mother mentioned that her son's ambition was to play professional basketball. John had an idea.
When he got home, he attached a basketball hoop to a post on the front porch. Sure enough, the next morning there was a resounding "plunk" as the newspaper sailed through the hoop and landed by the door.
John never had to search for his paper again.
"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened."
- Sir Winston Churchill
