Good morning all!! A quote for daily reading. =0)

Goooood morning/evening and happy Monday to you all! Who am I kidding why isn't it Sunday still and I am sleeping in. =0) Definitely sounds better for sure. So a great topic for a Monday morning is learning and living. This week I am challenging everyone again, and that challenge is to read a book or learn something new. It could even be on something you already know, but need to "sharpen" your skills. As we all say in the house I live in "If you are not learning you are not living", and this is very true for every adventure you take and every mistake you make if you learned from them then you can move on. I want to keep this one going for a bit so I want to challenge everyone that reads this today to tell me what you plan on reading or learning in a comment below. =0) Have a wonderful day everyone!! Cheers!

Once upon a time a very strong woodcutter ask for a job in a timber merchant, and he got it. The paid was really good and so were the work conditions. For that reason, the woodcutter was determined to do his best.

His boss gave him an axe and showed him the area where he was supposed to work.

The first day, the woodcutter brought 18 trees

"Congratulations," the boss said. "Go on that way!"

Very motivated for the boss’ words, the woodcutter try harder the next day, but he only could bring 15 trees. The third day he try even harder, but he only could bring 10 trees.Day after day he was bringing less and less trees.

"I must be losing my strength", the woodcutter thought. He went to the boss and apologized, saying that he could not understand what was going on.

"When was the last time you sharpened your axe?" the boss asked.

"Sharpen? I had no time to sharpen my axe. I have been very busy trying to cut trees..."
