Your Mom:  What do you remember about our first date and the day you fixed my car? Your Dad:  Let me see…  you already explained it pretty well.  You need to clarify what I’m fixing.  I didn’t replace the power steering pump.  I replaced the pressure line which went into the power steering pump.

I used to think I knew what faith was. I thought that I had studied it enough, and read enough talks, and given enough lessons.

I have shown a similar journal entry like this before I switched over to my printed journals, so I had to re-do it in my new journals!!
