That’s very pertinent… I’ve been wondering all week how to do just that – beat the system and get out of the rat race. What I didn’t realise was that I was just anxious at getting ahead of that race, and not out of it. And eventually feeling despondent cos I’ll never be able to get ahead.

“The best ending is where hope beyond hope, the principle characters are all transformed into the very thing they never thought they could be!”

Thank God grace means unmerited favour… and even this rat can be transformed into something more useful. :) Thanks for reminding!
