ho really invented what?


Although many great inventions were attributed to
their inventors, who could really say, it
was they who thought of it first? With
poor or non-existent communication,
its possible someone invented the design first, but was beaten down to it, in
terms of recognition. That it was just a
matter of time - even a few minutes or
seconds. Who could really tell...?
Great minds thinks alike. When Johann Vaaler
patented his paperclip in 1901, there already were
similar designs by William Middlebrook and Cornelius Brosnan. Vaaler is credited with being the
first to design a paperclip because of drawings he
made as early as 1899.
In 1669, the principles of differential calculus were
determined by Sir Isaac Newton in England and
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in Germany at about the
same time. (The name is derived from the
Latin word for pebble, referring to the
use of pebbles for counting.)
One hour before Alexander Graham Bell
registered his patent for the telephone in
1876, Elisha Gray patented his design. After
years of litigation, the patent went to Bell.
Gray invented the first electronic musical
instrument. He had accidentally discovered that he could control sound from a
self-vibrating electromagnetic circuit and

Matter of ...

technology to Grays.
At 10h35 on Friday 17 December 1903, Orville
Wright took the Flyer that he and his brother
Wilbur built into the air for what has come to
be known as the first powered flight. Earlier,
unbeknownst to them, Gustave Whitehead and
Richard Pearse were also experimenting with
flying machines. Who actually took first to the
sky remains a controversy.

in doing so invented a basic single


note oscillator. The Musical Telegraph used steel reeds whose
oscillations were created and
transmitted over a telephone line
by electromagnets. At the same
time, around 1874, Bell had also
designed an experimental Electric Harp for speech transmission
over a telephone line using similar

In 1926 in Scotland, John Logie Baird demonstrated a machine that transmits movie
pictures using radio technology, calling it a
televisor. It was based on a 1884 idea by
German Paul Nipkow. At the same time, Philo
Fansworth was toiling away in San Francisco on
his concept for television. The two men met a
few months later, and Baird had to agree that
Farnsworths electronic design was the better.
They werent the only ones working on a TV
model, though. Vladmir Zworykin, a Russian
immigrant to New York, was working on athode-ray tubes, with the backing of David Sarnoff, the tech-savvy marketer who started NBC.
In 1928, Farnsworths television sets made it to
the market first, at $75 apiece.

Living in Harmony

With Wildlife
No matter where you live, there are things you can do to keep the wildlife around you safe.
All it takes is increased awareness and a few extra moments a day to make a huge difference
in the lives of the wonderful animals with whom we share the Earth.
Here are a few quick and easy tips for preventing the suffering of wildlife:

Cut apart all sections of plastic six-pack rings, including the inner diamonds, before
discarding them. It prevents birds beaks from getting caught in the rings.

Rinse out cans, put the top inside so that it cant cut an animals tongue, and flatten
the open end of the can as much as possible.

Cut open one side of empty cardboard and plastic containers so that squirrels and
other small animals cant get their faces or heads trapped in them.

A TRICK
We should never amuse ourselves
at the expense of the poor.

young man, a student in one of our


universities, was one day taking a
walk with a professor, who was commonly called the students friend,
from his kindness to those who waited on his
instructions.
As they went along, they saw lying in the path
a pair of old shoes, which they supposed to
belong to a poor man who was employed in a
field close by, and who had nearly finished his
days work.
The student turned to the professor, saying:
Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his
shoes, and conceal ourselves behind those
bushes, and wait to see his perplexity when
he cannot find them.
My young friend, answered the professor,
we should never amuse ourselves at the
expense of the poor. But you are rich, and
may give yourself a much greater pleasure by
means of the poor man. Put a coin into each
shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and
watch how the discovery affects him.
The student did so, and they both placed
themselves behind the bushes close by.
The poor man soon finished his work, and
came across the field to the path where he
had left his coat and shoes. While putting

on his coat he slipped his foot into one of


his shoes; but feeling something hard, he
stooped down to feel what it was, and found
the coin.
Astonishment and wonder were seen upon
his countenance. He gazed upon the coin,
turned it round, and looked at it again and
again. He then looked around him on all sides,
but no person was to be seen. He now put the
money into his pocket, and proceeded to put
on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin.
His feelings overcame him; he fell upon his
knees, looked up to heaven and uttered aloud
a fervent thanksgiving, in which he spoke of
his wife, sick and helpless, and his children
without bread, whom the timely bounty, from
some unknown hand, would save from perishing.
The student stood there deeply affected, and
his eyes filled with tears. Now, said the professor, are you not much better pleased than
if you had played your intended trick?
The youth replied, You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget. I feel now the
truth of those words, which I never understood before: It is more blessed to give than
to receive.

t was a busy morning, approximately 8:30


am, when an elderly gentleman,in his
80s, arrived to have stitches removed
from his thumb. He stated that he was
in a hurry as he had an appointment at
9:00 am.

I took his vital signs and had him


take a seat, knowing it would
be over an hour before someone would to able to see him.
I saw him looking at his watch
and decided, since I was not
busy with another patient, I
would evaluate his wound.
On exam it was well healed,
so I talked to one of the
doctors, got the needed
supplies to remove his
sutures and redress his
wound.
While taking care of his
wound, we began to engage
in conversation I asked him
if he had a doctors appointment this morning,
as he was in such a hurry.
The gentleman told me no,
that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his
wife.

talked, and I finished dressing his


wound, I asked if she would be
worried if he was a bit late. He
replied that she no longer knew
who he was, that she had not
recognized him in five years
now.

WHAT IS
LOVE?

I was surprised,
and asked him.
And you still go
every morning,
even though
she doesnt
know who
you are?
He smiled
as he patted my
hand and
said. She
doesnt
know me,
but I still
know who
she is.

Have you seen the movie


The Notebook? This
story comes close to telling
how it is ...

I then inquired as to her health. He


told me that she had been there
for a while and that she was a
victim of Alzheimer Disease. As we

I had to hold back


tears as he left, I had
goose bumps on my arm,
and thought, That is the
kind of love I want in my
life. True love is neither
physical, nor romantic.
True love is an acceptance
of all that is, has been, will
be, and will not be.

She doesnt know me, but I still


know who she is.

If you drink,
dont drive...

...if you drive,


dont drink.

FIND 40 BOOKS OF THE BIBLE

See if you can find 40 books of the Bible


hidden in the following paragraph!

his is a most remarkable puzzle. It was


found by a Mr. Valdez Raburn, in an
airplane seat pocket, while on a flight
from Los Angeles to Honolulu, keeping
him occupied for hours. John Hess, who owns
a beauty salon in N.J., ere MI? Ah, it was N.Y.!
He found it tucked in one of his beauty magazines. He spent so much time on this puzzle
while eating at the local Deli, Saia Hess, his exwife, had no choice but to buy out Hess salon!
I answered quite a bit of email from people
that have seen this puzzle. A famous comic, a
hilarious musician, sent an email that he studied the puzzle while playing his banjo. Elaine
Taylor was so mesmerized by this puzzle, she
wrote a poem telling people not to fall victim;
O thy hidden books, which fail to be found, I
look so hard and futile, I cannot put this puzzle
down! She judges the job of solving this puzzle so involving, she brews a cup of tea to help
her nerves. There will be some books that are
really easy to spot, others near impossible! In
fact, some people will soon find themselves
in a jam, especially since the book names are
not necessarily capitalized. Truthfully, from
answers we get, we are forced to admit it usually takes a minister or a scholar to find some
of them! At the worst, one should be able to
find at least half of them. Research has shown
that something in our genes is responsible for
the difficulty we have in seeing the books hid-

den in this paragraph. The Chronicle, surveyed


over 200 patrons, including Jude Raj, a local
seminary professor. They agree this puzzle is
one of the most difficult they have ever seen.
Prof. Raj, on a Holy Bible, vowed to find all the
books; rumor has it hes still looking. During a
recent fund raising event, which featured this
puzzle, the Alpha Delta Phi lemonade booth
set a new record in sales. At an auto auction,
where one HEMI, ahead of all other vehicles
sold, received a record bid due to the buyer
preoccupied with this puzzle while bidding! As
Daniel Sherman, a humble priest at St. Lukes
medical center puts it, The books are all right
here in plain view, hidden from sight. Those
able to find all of them will hear great lamentations from those who have to be shown where
the books are found. One revelation that may
help is that books like Timothy and Samuel
may occur without their preceding numbers.
Also, keep in mind two things, punctuation
and spaces some proclaim these two bad.
I, ahead of the game, knew that spaces and
punctuation in the middle of a book would be
normal! A chipper attitude will help you compete really well against those who claim they
can find the hidden books faster. Remember,
there is no need for a mad exodus; there really
are 40 books of the Bible lurking somewhere in
this text waiting to be found.

God Bless and good luck!

Will Human Being


Become Immortal?
http://mashable.com/2012/08/02/the-2045-initiative-immortality/

mmortality is a great for True Blood, but


its not something most people take seriously except for Dmitry Itskov, that is.

The 31-year-old Russian plans on making


immortality a reality by 2045. His plan,
The 2045 Initiative , will sound familiar
if youve seen the James Cameron blockbuster Avatar and he just needs a few
billion dollars to make it happen.
Itskovs project has several phases, each
bringing mankind closer to the ultimate
goal living forever. The first step in the project is to create robotic humans that are
controlled remotely. He plans on crossing
this hurdle by 2020, at the latest.
By 2025, a human brain will be transfered
into a robotic skeleton to continue life
after death. In 2035, the avatars brain will
be constructed separately, and your own
personality will simply be transfered
into it when you are ready to end your
human existence. And finally, by the year
2045, humans will be able to walk around
in holographic avatars for eternity, never
fearing death.
Not surprisingly, the project is extremely
expensive, and Itskov needs some serious
financial help to pull it off. Hes asking the
worlds richest people to help fund the
movement. In return, He is pledging to
help each donor on his or her own quest
for immortality. You know, because its
hard to spend $50 billion in one lifetime.

The jury is out on


whether scientific
and technological
advancement will
ultimately sound
the death-knell for
the human race, but
such concerns have
not stopped Henry
Markram, director of
the Blue Brain Project, from enthusing
about the potential
benefits of a synthetic human brain at
TED Global 2009.

They kept on walking, until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath, The one
who had been slapped was stuck in the mire and
started drowning, but the friend saved him.

friend asked him, After I hurt you, you wrote in


the sand, and now you write on a stone, why?
The friend replied, When someone hurt us,
we should write it down in sand, where wind of
foregiveness can erase it away, but when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase
it!

Dust If You Must

used to spend at least 8 hours every weekend making sure things were just perfect in case someone came over Finally I realized one day that no-one came over; they
were all out living life and having fun!

Dust if you must .... but wouldnt it be better to paint a picture or write a letter, bake
cookies or a cake and lick the spoon or plant
a seed, ponder the difference between want
and need?

NOW, when people visit, I dont have to explain the condition of my home .

Dust if you must, but theres not much time...


with beer to drink , rivers to swim and mountains to climb, music to hear and books to
read, friends to cherish and life to lead.

They are more interested in hearing about the


things Ive been doing while I was away living
life and having fun.
If you havent figured this out yet, please
heed this advice.
Life is short. Enjoy it!

LADIES!!!
Remember...a
layer of dust
protects the
Wood beneath it.
A house becomes
a home when you
can write I love you
on the furniture.

Dust if you must, but the worlds out there


with the sun in your eyes, the wind in your
hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of rain. This
day will not come around, again.
Dust if you must , but bear in mind, old age
will come and its not kind. . ..
And when you go - and go you must - you,
yourself will make more dust!

ecause Im a man, when I lock my


keys in the car, I will fiddle with a
coat hanger long after hypothermia
has set in. Calling AAA is not an option. I will win.

Because Im a man , when the car isnt running very well, I will pop the hood and stare
at the engine as if I know what Im looking at.
If another man shows up, one of us will say
to the other, I used to be able to fix these
things, but now with all these computers and
everything, I wouldnt know where to start.
We will then drink a couple of beers and
break wind, as a form of holy communion.
Because Im a man, when I catch a cold, I
need someone to bring me soup and take
care of me while I lie in bed and moan. Youre
a woman. You never get as sick as I do, so for
you, this is no problem.
Because Im a man, I can be relied upon to
purchase basic groceries at the store, like
beer, milk or bread. I annot be expected to
find exotic items like cumin or tofu. For all I
know, these are the same thing.
Because Im a man, when one of our appliances stops working, I will insist on taking it
apart, despite evidence that this will just cost

Because Im a

Man

me twice as much once the repair person gets


here and has to put it back together.
Because Im a man, I must hold the television
remote control in my hand while I watch TV.
If the thing has been misplaced, I may miss a
whole show looking for it.....though one time
I was able to survive by holding a calculator...(
applies to engineers mainly).
Because Im a man, there is no need to ask
me what Im thinking about. The true answer
is always either sex, cars, sex, sports or sex.
I have to make up something else when you
ask, so dont ask.
Because Im a man, I do not want to visit your
mother, or have your mother come visit us, or
talk to her when she calls, or think about her
any more than I have to. Whatever you got
her for Mothers Day is okay; I dont need to
see it. And dont forget to pick up something
for my mother, too.

Because Im a man, you dont have to ask


me if I liked the movie. Chances are, if youre
crying at the end of it, I didnt ...and if you
are feeling amorous afterwards.. ..then I will
certainly at least remember the name and
recommend it to others.
Because Im a man, I think what youre wearing is fine. I thought what you were wearing
five minutes ago was fine, too. Either pair of
shoes is fine. With the belt or without it, looks
fine. Your hair is fine. You look fine. Can we
just go now?
Because Im a man, and this is, after all, the
year 2008, I will share equally in the housework. You just do the laundry, the cooking,
the cleaning, the vacuuming, and the dishes,
and Ill do the rest...... like wandering around
in the garden with a beer wondering what to
do.
This has been a public service message for
women to better understand men.

n elderly Chinese woman had two


large pots, each hung on the ends of
a pole which she carried across her
neck.

The old woman smiled, Did you notice that


there are flowers on your side of the path, but
not on the other pots side?

One of the pots had a crack in it while the


other pot was perfect and always delivered a
full portion of water.

Thats because I have always known about


your flaw, so I planted flower seeds on your
side of the path, and every day while we walk
back, you water them.

At the end of the long walks from the stream to


the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full.

For two years I have been able to pick these


beautiful flowers to decorate the table.

For a full two years this went on daily, with


the woman bringing home only one and a half
pots of water.

Without you being just the way you are, there


would not be this beauty to grace the house.

Of course , the perfect pot was proud of its


accomplishments.
But the poor cracked pot was ashamed of its
own imperfection, and miserable that it could
only do half of what it had been made to do.
After two years of what it perceived to be bitter failure, it spoke to the woman one day by
the stream
I am ashamed of myself, because this crack
in my side causes water to leak out all the way
back to your house.

Cracked
Pot

Each of us has our own unique flaw. But its


the cracks and flaws we each have that make
our lives together so very interesting and
rewarding.
Youve just got to take each person for what
they are and look for the good in them.
SO, to all of my crackpot friends, have a great
day and remember to smell the flowers on
your side of the path!

Anyone can be a Father


but it takes someone special
to be a

Daddy

Fathers are wonderful people


Too little understood,
And we do not sing their praises
As often as we should...

And perhaps that is the reason


We sometimes get the notion,
That Fathers are not subject
To the thing we call emotion,

For, somehow, Father seems to be


The man who pays the bills,
While Mother binds up little hurts
And nurses all our ills...

But if you look inside Dads heart,


Where no one else can see
Youll find hes sentimental
And as soft as he can be...

And Father struggles daily


To live up to HIS IMAGE
As protector and provider
And hero or the scrimmage.. .

But hes so busy every day


In the grueling race of life,
He leaves the sentimental stuff
To his partner and his wife...
But Fathers are just WONDERFUL
In a million different ways,
And they merit loving compliments
And accolade of praise,
For the only reason Dad aspires
To fortune and success
Is to make the family proud of him
And to bring them happiness...
And like OUR HEAVENLY FATHER,
Hes a guardian and a guide,
Someone that we can count on
To be ALWAYS ON OUR SIDE.

Let Us Stay

Connected!

Let me tell you some easy ways to love me, your
liver!!!
Dont drown me in beer, alcohol or wine. Even
one drink is too much for some people and

REMOVING

GALLSTONES

In my research in China , I came across some materials which say that people with cancer usually
have stones. We all have gallstones. Its a matter
of big or small, many or few.
One of the symptoms of gallstones is a feeling of
bloatedness after a heavy meal. You feel like you
cant digest the food. If it gets more serious, you
feel pain in the liver area. So if you think you
have gallstones, Chiu Nan offers the following
method to remove them naturally.
The treatment is also good for those with a weak
liver, because the liver and gallbladder are closely
linked.
Regimen:
1. For the first five days, take four glasses of apple juice every day. Or eat four or five apples,
whichever you prefer. Apple juice softens the
gallstones. During the five days, eat normally.
2. On the sixth day, take no dinner.

3. At 6 PM, take a teaspoon of Epsom salt (magnesium sulphate) with a glass of warm water.
4. At 8 PM, repeat the same. Magnesium sulphate opens the gallbladder ducts.
5. At 10 PM, take half cup olive oil (or sesame oil)
with half cup fresh lemon juice. Mix it well and
drink it. The oil lubricates the stones to ease their
passage.
The next morning, you will find green stones in
your stools. Usually they float, Chiu Nan notes.
You might want to count them. I have had people who passes 40, 50 or up to 100 stones. Very
many.
Even if you dont have any symptoms of gallstones, you still might have some. Its always
good to give your gall bladder a clean-up now
and then.

axappphealthcare.co.uk

t has worked for many. If it works for you


please pass on the good news. Chiu Nan is
not charging for it, so we should make it free
for everyone. Your reward is when someone,
through your word of mouth, benefits from
the regime. Gallstones may not be everyones
concern. But they should be because we all have
them. Moreover, gallstones may lead to cancer.
Cancer is never the first illness, Chiu Nan points
out. Usually, there are a lot of other problems
leading to cancer.

If you are a Dog : A very loyal and sweet person.


Your loyalty can never be doubted. You are quite
honest and sincere when it comes to your attitude towards working. You are a very simple
person, indeed. Absolutely hassle free, humble
and down-to-earth! ! That explains the reason
why your friends cling on to you! You have a good
taste for clothes. If your wardrobe is not updated
with what is trendy, you sure are depressed.
Popular and easy-going. You have a little group
of dignified friends, all of them being qualitypersonified .

If you are a Lion : Quite contradictory to your


name, you are a peace loving person. You best
try to avoid a situation wherein you are required
to fight. An outdoor person, you dislike sitting
at one place for a long duration. You are a born
leader, and have it in you how to tactfully derive
work from people. You love being loved, and
when you receive your share of limelight from
someone, you are all theirs!!!! Well, well... hence
some people could even take an advantage, flatter you to the maximum and get their work done.
So be careful.....

If you are a Mouse : Always up to some sort


of a mischief! The mischievous gleam in your
eyes is what makes you so cute and attractive to
everyone. You are an extremely fun-to-be-with
kind of person. No wonder people seek for your
company and look forward to include you for all
get-together s. However, you are sensitive which
is a drawback. People need to select their words
while talking to you. If someone tries to fiddle
around and play with words while dealing with
you, it is enough to invite your wrath. God bless
the person then!

If you are a Cat : An extremely lovable, adorable


person, sometimes shy, with a passion for quick
wit. At times, you prefer quietness. You love
exploring various things and going into depth of
each thing. Under normal circumstances youre
cool but when given a reason to, you are like a
volcano waiting to erupt. Youre a fashion bird.
People look forward to you as an icon associated
with fashion. Basically, you mingle along freely
but dont like talking much to strangers. People
feel very easy in your company. You observe care
in choosing your friends.

If you are a Turtle : You are near to perfect and


nice at heart. The examples of your kindness are
always circulated in groups of people. You, too,
love peace. You wouldnt like to retaliate even to
a person who is in the wrong. You are loved due
to this. You do not wish to talk behind ones back.
People love the way you always treat them. You
can give, give and give love, and the best part is
that you do not expect it back in return. You are
generous enough. Seeing things in a practical
light is what remains the best trait of you guys.
If you are a Dove : You symbolize a very happygo-lucky approach in life. Whatever the surroundings may be, grim or cheerful, you remain unaffected. In fact, you spread cheer wherever you
go. You are the leader of your group of friends
and good at consoling people in their times of
need. You dislike hypocrisy and tend to shirk
away from hypocrites. They can never be in your
good books, no matter what. You are very methodical and organized in your work. No amount
of mess, hence, can ever encompass you. Beware, it is easy for you to fall in love....

If you are a Panther : You are mysterious.


You are someone who can handle pressure
with ease, and can handle any atmosphere
without going berserk. You can be mean at
times, and love to gossip with your selected group. Very prim and proper. You like all
situations and things to be in the way you
desire, which, sometimes is not possible.
As a result, you may lose out in some relationships. But otherwise, you love to help
people out from difficult and tight spots
when they really need you.
If you are a Monkey : Very impatient and
hyper!!! You want things to be done as
quick as possible. At heart, you are quite
simple and love if you are the center of attraction. That way, you people are unique.
You would like to keep yourself safe from
all the angles. Shall your name be dragged
or featured in any sort of a controversy,
you then go all panicky. Therefore, you
take your precautions from the very beginning. When you foresee anything wrong,
your sixth sense is what saves you from
falling in traps. Quite a money minded
bunch you people are!!

Challenges Are
Blessings In Disguise
God sometimes sends us challenges as
blessings in disguise,
To make us stop and think along the way...
To make us search our hearts and souls
And take time to discover,
A little more about ourselves each day...
To lovingly remind us just reach out to
Him in prayer,
For any answers that we long to know....
God sometimes sends us challenges,
As blessings in disguise
To guide us and inspire us as we grow...
May God who watches over us and blesses us
each day,

Help you find the strength to meet what


life may send your way.
May He guide your footsteps and hear
your every prayer,
And in the days to follow keep you always
in His loving care...
Sometimes we suffer physically, other times
emotionally. No matter what the cause,
pain is pain.
But Gods word promises: Blessed are
those that mourn, for they shall be
comforted.
Matthew 5:4

he only survivor of a shipwreck was


washed up on a small, uninhabited
island. He prayed feverishly for God to
rescue him, and every day he scanned
the horizon for help, but none seemed
forthcoming. Exhausted, he eventually managed
to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect
him from the elements, and to store his few possessions.
But then one day, after scavenging for food, he
arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the
smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had happened; everything was lost. He was stunned with
grief and anger. God, how could you do this to
me! he cried.

Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue
him.
How did you know I was here? asked the
weary man of his rescuers. We saw your
smoke signal, they replied.
It is easy to get discouraged when things
are going bad. But we shouldnt lose heart,
because God is at work in our lives, even in
the midst of pain and suffering. Remember,
next time your little hut is burning to the
groundit just may be a smoke signal
that summons grace of God.

Dont settle for anything less.

MR. WEALTH, SU

story is told of a woman who came out


of her house and saw 3 old men with
long white beards sitting in her front
yard. She did not recognize them. She
said, I dont think I know you, but you must be
hungry. Please come in and have something to
eat.
Is the man of the house home? they asked.
No, she said. Hes out.
Then we cannot come in they replied.
In the evening when her husband came home,
she told him what had happened.
Go tell them I am home and invite them in.
The woman went out and invited the men in.

We dont go into a house together, they replied.


Why is that? she wanted to know.
One of the old men explained: His name is
Wealth...he said pointing to one of his friends...
and said pointing to another one, He is Success
and I am Love.
Now go in and discuss with your husband which
one of us you want in your home. The woman
went in and told her husband what was said. Her
husband was overjoyed, How nice, he said.
Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth. Let
him come and fill our home with wealth.
His wife disagreed, My dear, why dont we invite
Success?

UCCESS OR LOVE
Their daughter-in- law was listening from the
other corner of the house. She jumped in with
her own suggestion: Would it not be better to
invite Love? Our home will be filled with love.
Let us heed our daughter-in- laws advice, said
the husband to his wife. Go out and invite Love
to be our guest.

Who have you invited


into your home?
The woman went out and asked the three old
men, Which one of you is Love? Please come in
and be our guest.
Love got up and started walking toward the
house. The other two also got up and followed
him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: I only invited Love, why are you coming
in? The old men replied together: If you had
invited Wealth or Success the other two of us
wouldve stayed out, but since you invited Love,
wherever he goes, we go with him.
Wherever there is Love there is also Wealth and
Success!
