The purpose of a fishnet is to catch fish, And when the fish are caught, the net is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to.

So they halted beside a lake and decided...

“I’m convinced that about half of what separates the successful entrepreneurs from the non-successful ones is pure perseverance. It is so hard. You put so much of your life into this thing.
There are such rough moments in time that I think most people give up. I don’t blame them. Its really tough and it consumes your life. If you’ve got a family and you’re in the...

Handy tricks
lickystickypickyme:
If you’re unsure of an egg’s freshness, see how it behaves in a cup of water: Fresh eggs sink; bad ones float.
Don’t throw away sparkling wine or champagne that’s gone flat. Restore the bubble by dropping a raisin or two into the bottle. The natural sugars will work magic.
Line the bottom of your refrigerator’s crisper drawer with paper towels. They’ll absorb the excess...
