It is difficult at times to overcome all the radical curves of life. And when we are in the throws of feeling like we have been overcome by everything bombarding us it may seem there is no way to rise up and be the Overcomer.

The Big Blue Ball
Mankind has done some fantastic things in the last one hundred or so years.
