                                      by
                                 Chris Hansen

I tried to be as broad minded as possible.  I tried to find as many ways to God

you joy any quicker and nothing makes you feel more alive than doing good
things for your soul and for the souls around you. Here then is a short list of
some of the things that I think are good for the soul.
