The more things change, the more they stay the same. The ways of the pharisees is as enduring and cunning as the slithering of a serpent’s tongue. Since biblical times, there has been a conflict between the words of God and those who choose to use it to enrich themselves at the cost of the

Life will give lemons this is well known; you can keep sucking lemon pulp and be the bitter or plant seeds and be a lemon farmer be the richer. The very same source of pain can be the inspiration for future greasiness if you choose to be grateful right in the midst of hardships and
