learn somethin new every day

every now n then i read the word 4u 2day. today it says:

"You might recall the name Isaac Newton as 'that bloke who is famous for having an apple fall on his head', but there's more to the story than that! Newton was the first person to be able to explain things we now take for granted, such as the way we are all subject to the Laws of Gravity and the Three Laws of Motion. But Newton might never have published his work had it not been for another science-dude called Edmond Halley. A well-respected boffin in his own right, Halley visited Newton at Cambridge to discuss a problem he was working on, only to discover that Newton had already solved it. Halley encouraged Newton to publish his work, and even offered to do it for him at his own expense. The result was the publication of the snazzily titled Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica in 1687, which laid the groundwork for the future study of mathematics and changed the way people see the world. You may not have the brain of Isaac Newton but you do have the heart of Edmond Halley, a heart that wants to encourage your mates to do great things. Who has God put into your life to cheer on, raise up, or help on their journey? This much is true: when you help other people to do the things God created them to do, you have the satisfaction of sharing in their success."

iv recently started looking for jobs...yes, me! i can barely believe it. its quite a weird experience, sending off pieces of paper for people to scrutinize over and ultimately help or hinder me in my career path... i havent yet got a job, but in all things i give thanks. and this morning its to those(you know who you are) who have encouraged me to apply and keep going coz this mind-numbing experience will be worth it in the end... even Newton needed a lil push in the right direction.

friends - gotta love 'em
