One of our deacons tells his son that he doesn't have to go to proceed to a four-year college course if he's not interested with any. He can just enter a two-year mechanic course, start a shop, and help in our jeepney ministry. He will be able to earn more money than finishing a four-year course he's not interested or not have a talent in.
On Swordsearcher, I'm glad to have one. It's a big help to me in finding verses I'm losing from my memory. Do any one have any tip (or some more advice) on how to maintain good memory?
