Ninety
percent of all the flowers in the world have an unpleasant odor or no odor at
all. Yet, we remember the flowers because of the ten percent that are
pleasantly fragrant! Ten percent that is given is remembered long after
we have forgotten how we spent the ninety percent. The ten percent rises
as an odor of a sweet savor to God.
