“Discontent is the first step in progress. No one knows what
is in him till he tries, and many would never try if they were not
forced to.”

Puppy Love for Valentines Day
Have a very Happy Valentines Day! My hubby got the short end of the
stick this year. I’ve been so busy that time got away from me. He got a
box of Girl Scout Cookies. *sigh* He actually loved them!!
About Basil Maturin
British cleric Basil Maturin, renowned for his oratory skill, was
ordained as an Anglican but later converted to Catholicism. He was born
on February 15, 1847 in Ireland. He ministered in Philadelphia before
returning to England in 1888 to resolve his conflict about his religious
identity. He died on board the Lusitania when it was sunk by a German U-boat on May 7, 1915. He was observed giving last rites as the ship sank, looking pale but calm.
