  • The secrey of life is everywhere

    Harold N. A. Hurry was a man who was like his middle and last names, always in a hurry.

    He complained so much that he’d often miss out on the little blessings that were all around. In fact, his favorite saying was, “Isn’t there any goodness left in the world?”
