But Air, I knew a man who wanted to be a fine minister and lost
everything several times trying to do the right thing. The feeling I have is that there are no worthy fields. But, happily, there is a redemptive power in the universe, a higher power that works through all types of people to do really great things.
There can be redemptive acts by that HP through car salesmen, plastic golf ball creators, golf pros, people in Minnesota, trashmen, soldiers, janitors, people in Norway, Georgia, everywhere, even Bollingbrook, IL, and people who write golf books!
