Steel was discovered when an angry blacksmith who had been sorely insulted and chastised by the king took out his fury on an iron sword that he had made by the hundreds before for the army.
As he beat it with his hand sledge to express his upset, and kept on beating and beating on it, putting it back into the fire until it was red hot again and then pulling it out and putting on the anvil and beating it some more,…

This experience is for my training and not matter how hard it seems to be, I will learn what it can teach me…and keep on keeping on.
I am grateful for the life that we are now creating in which we a exploring new frontiers every day...where even though it seemed impossible, we are bringing harmony out of many many years of conflict.
I am grateful that we are truly learning to commune a cate....to achieve the state of communion together through open hearted communication, even when it is really really really challenging.
