From the resolutions of Jonathan Edwards:
Resolution #5: "Resolved, never to lose one moment of time; but improve it the most profitable way I possibly can."
Resolution #6: "Resolved, to live with all my might, while I do live."
Resolution #17: "Resolved, that I will live so, as I shall wish I had done when I come to die."
Resolution #22: "Resolved, to endeavor to obtain for myself as much happiness, in the other world, as I possibly can, with all the power, might, vigor, and vehemence, yea violence, I am capable of, or can bring on myself to exert, in any way that can be thought of."
I love his writing. So thot provoking!
