I heard some quotes this week that got me thinking about working on the farm. I thought I'd do a little traveling back into the past while honoring the hard working farm families out there. We need more young men and women who are willing to work! Youth that have a willingness to work are rare and are greatly appreciated. There are jobs available for those who are willing to put their hands and brain to work!
"Opportunity is missed by most because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work." --Thomas Edison
"Working with the hands sets the brain to work."
--Charles C. Coffin
It's great being a farm kid!
Go to the ant, you sluggard!Consider her ways and be wise, Which, having no captain,Overseer or ruler, Provides her supplies in the summer,And gathers her food in the harvest.How long will you slumber, O sluggard?When will you rise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber,A little folding of the hands to sleep-- So shall your poverty come on you like a prowler,And your need like an armed man.
Proverbs 6:6-11
