New is not present and not old.

i love words - playing with them, arranging them, different arrangements can bring out different tones and meanings...and attitudes. My English teacher in college when i was 17 once mentioned that influential people of the past used emotive words that could alter people's emotions and change thinking. She gave us extracts of such speeches made in the past and told us to highlight the phrases or sentences that were not so much factual but emotive.

This is the verse for the day:

“This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters, “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” - Isaiah 43:16, 18-19
