It is quite amazing how hard the subconscious works when it is made to understand that this life is not a rehearsal, there is no safety net and no assurance of any final closure. - John Burdett

From this life we take nothing, but memories and the good deeds we have done. While we try to build the future of our children, there are less fortunate people in this world that need help, a lot of help. There are also people who devoted their lives to help others creating foundations, organizations and entities that do exactly that – help others!
