GRANDPA: Tell him Harold.

SHERIFF: Nice guys finish last.

NICE GUY: But the American Dream…

GRANDPA: Not nice people.

SHERIFF: You want a house? Get hungry Fido.

John Rubens@raftofwater·1mReplying to @KrusinKeeganBlaming God for his [man’s] environment is like blaming others for the mistakes we made ourselves.

The Life

Seven purgations leading to wisdom> Seven degrees of love > In this life, refinement [silver] comes with melting [threshing of impurities 7 times, like a washing machine with a 7 rinse cycle] and in the “life to come will be to the soul like gold”.–St. John of the Cross
