Deep Pockets

A God-fearing man
  will not pocket
    so much as a pen

One who fears men
  eventually takes
    whatever he can

I have pocketed a lot of pens; but when I take them back they give them to me usually.

Oh I like this one…how true! When we accidentally take something we feel guilty, when the world takes everything they laugh. Keep writing! You are a gem!

Thanks, Kim... And now that I am a gem, I'll let my wife know my 'true value.' lol. Season's Joy, Gershon

There is indeed a lot of difference between a man who fears God and a man who fears men.... ! You are becoming more philosophical these days, Gershon !

Perhaps I am nearing the end of (my) days. But I hope not. I've got what to do for at least another 20 years. :)
