"Anybody can become angry – that is easy; but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way – that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy"

Investing Matters...In What?

I had the amazing opportunity to spend the weekend at a family reunion of my wife's uncles and aunts. Part of the weekend was spent reflecting on the gift of leaving a legacy that was left by the grandfather and grandmother in the family.

Grandpa Weaver was a church pastor and a business man. I heard stories of a man who believed in the importance of emotionally investing in people's lives. He would make children and grandchildren feel like they were the only ones that mattered.

Investment in anything takes time and it takes a plan...no one invests in anything without first thinking about the cost and how they will do it.  Sadly I wonder whether we have stopped investing in future generations. We are so concerned about our retirement and social security discussions but very rarely talk about the investment spiritually of the next generation 
Why don't we challenge ourselves to find someone in the next generation to invest in? The return will be greater than anything we can imagine!
