As mentioned earlier, all those things are out of our control & will require a bus load of faith in God to help us stay balanced .
Boy.....talk about hitting the nail squarely on the head. Exactly!

Not kidding!

I personally built a 40 ton capacity bridge (highway specs), for my first homes access over a stream. This structure is so strong so big and so heavy virtually nothing can destroy it. There's a brass plaque with my name on the bridge, my name will surely be uttered! Keep in mind this bridge is already 36 years old, still looks brand new!
Any chance of getting a pic of the bridge? I'd like to see it.

Most awesome sir.

We have much in common. I have built a few bridges.
Two in wood over a pond and creek at a farm. One in concrete over a creek on a golf course.

I thank God I wasn't raised Catholic. Everybody I know who's Catholic has PTSD....even the ones who weren't sodomized by priests. Organized religion is the biggest con in human history. I believe in God, but despise the monetization of churches based on guilt and empty promises perpetrated on the 'believers'. To each his own.
