"WORDS are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, they slither wildly as they slip away across the UNIVERSE..." -John Lennon (1940-80)
![IMAGE: When one door closes another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us [the one which has opened for us].](https://www.ok312.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/doors-20172_640_alexander-graham-bell-402095_640-200x150.jpg)
![IMAGE: What is the nation's treasure? The will to (achieve) enlightenment is the treasure, and one who possesses it is the nation's treasure. Therefore there is an old saying that a string of (large) jewels is not the nation's treasure; the nation's treasure is one who lights up a (small) corner of the world [one who brightens the world at his corner / one who shines light into a dark corner].](https://www.ok312.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/candle-1285146_640-200x132.jpg)
