The "Seeds Of Wisdom" in this volume are enough for a year and a day. No date order, classification or interpretation will be attempted. Each seed will reveal its intimate purpose while in the reflection of them. Each seed is numbered because its good to number things to remember them by. When all is said and done the Great Gardener will determine which of the random seeds take root. With faith I throw them upon fertile ground.
The following are a few "Seeds" that will be found in this
book.
Seed #1 A child will listen if he or she is listened to.
Seed # 71 Disappointment is not a dark cloud following you through life. Get over it and move forward into the sunlight.
Seed # 162 Love is the Passionate Acceptance of God.
Seed # 297 A plan doesn't mean success. Hard work using the plan does.
Seed# 333 Getting hurt in life is similar to getting your First Haircut. You didn't ask for it but you got it anyway.
There are many more, hopefully usefull in living a life of Wisdom and Responsibility. This book is perfect for giving to family and friends on any occassion.

The answers are always present if the questions are always honest.

About the Book
"Jerry's Own-Seeds of Wisdom" came to life after the Author was thinking of a good way to share with everyone the blessed gift known as "Wisdom", which is so vital to a human beings journey through life. Not wanting to "copy" from anywhere the multitude of expressed Wisdom available, Jerry Ferguson sat at his desk in front of his computer, prayed, and here they came! In a very short time over 325 individual thoughts were put down, in amazement to his wife who checked up on him with the question "What are you doing?" A week or so later while on vacation in Pennsylvania the Author completed his thoughts and rounded them off at 366, one more needed for Leap Year. Immediately many people expressed how they liked the collection and he proceeded with getting it published with the good people of Author House. I hope it will be found favorable to young and old alike. A great gift for any occassion or holiday. A little wisdom never hurt anybody. That's for sure!
Enjoy the book. It came from the heart.
