Brain food!

How is it that things you used to know leak out of the brain when you stop using them?

Today I've done a number of things which a few years back would have been easy, but I had to stop and get the book out, and even that wasn't easy ... despite its title! Perseverance required!

Relationships can be like that as well. Other people, friends and family can
act in ways which cause us to draw back and even distance ourselves to avoid further hurt. Here again is an example of where perseverance is required or everyone loses out.

Reminds me of a verse from the Bible which reads ...
Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1:12
