Here are four friends of two different families one is from Jams and the others are from Jellies. Their names are Raspberries and Sour Cherries. All four thought that they could be related somehow. They started to ask some questions. "What is the difference between jam and jelly?" "Does it really matter to us?" They heard that one is 'thicker' than the other is that so. They sat around and thought and thought about this and figured out that they were all delicious. Jams liked Jellies and Jellies liked Jams and they decided not to wonder why any more now.

A Party of Books
Have you ever wondered what the books do after the library closes at night? I believe that all the books have a party of sorts. The reference books are the leaders who every once in a while like to relax and read some fiction. The fiction novels like to learn things and ideas and the reference books share their information. Other areas of the library like the children's section gets a little overly excited and has to be quieted down so the classic novels and poetry books share their material that seems to work in bringing quiet to the library.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
