Inconvenient facts on the road to freedom

Ticketed & Fined Until The End Of Time:
Often, we are asked why bother to bother when we don’t need to bother; especially when Seeds of Wisdom appear to fall on barren soil... At such times, we should remember that the Fruits used to feed the starving were planted by others long ago, without any idea that they would be saving lives, and, just as the Bird may carry seeds to distant lands, some things we do will benefit others more than ourselves.
