"We are reading the first verse of the first chapter of a book whose pages are infinite..." "
I do not know who wrote those words
but I have always liked them as a reminder that the future can be anything we want to make it
We can take the mysterious
hazy future and carve out of it anything that we can imagine
just as a sculptor carves a statue from a shapeless stone
We are all in the position of the farmer
If we plant a good seed, we reap a good harvest
