Weekly thoughts

By the late Rev. Paul Osumi

When the other fellow takes a long time, you're thorough.

When he doesn't do it, he's lazy, but when you don't do it, you're too busy.

When he goes ahead and does something without being told, he's overstepping his bounds.

But when you go ahead and do it, you're original. When he succeeds, he's lucky. When you do, you deserve it.

Thoughts by the late Rev. Paul Osumi are selected weekly by his family.
