The carbon gets up there, but the heating effect is delayed. And then the effect of that heat on the species and ecosystem is delayed.

For how is one to appreciate the contrast of light's dawning hope if his soul has never trembled through the dark hours of a nightmare's watch? Or how can one prove God's faithfulness if he never is granted the privilege of wandering through a barren desert, where only pools of Christ's Presence can possibly provide survival? It is a great honor to be apportioned pain. Christ Himself, though God incarnate, learned obedience through what He suffered. Dare we assume that we as His children can be taught by any wiser or kinder instructor than the severity of unwanted pain? We dare not steel ourselves against our trials, running away from the fires where our pruned branches crumble to ashes. For if we escape those flames, we will risk barrenness of soul and will miss out on the beauty that only is born through the ashes of yesterday's grief.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6828</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66151]]></link><description><![CDATA[Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/66151</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14180]]></link><description><![CDATA[An error doesn't become a mistake until you refuse to correct it.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14180</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Between leading indicators and subdued inflation expectations, it's really set a nice backdrop for the market today, ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36830]]></link><description><![CDATA[Between leading indicators and subdued inflation expectations, it's really set a nice backdrop for the market today,]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36830</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Poetry is truth dwelling in beauty. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46764]]></link><description><![CDATA[Poetry is truth dwelling in beauty.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/46764</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[He was my North, my South, my East and West, My working week and Sunday rest, My noon, my midnight, ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25939]]></link><description><![CDATA[He was my North, my South, my East and West, My working week and Sunday rest, My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song; I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/25939</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The more I traveled the more I realized that fear makes strangers of people who should be friends. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16910]]></link><description><![CDATA[The more I traveled the more I realized that fear makes strangers of people who should be friends.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/16910</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[It is disgraceful when the passers-by exclaim, "O ancient house!

We know well enough how to keep outward silence, and to hush our spoken words, but we know little of interior silence.
