It is good to have a heart filled with the fire of God. It is even better when the damper is completely open. Let the fresh air flow in. The fire will burn faster, hotter, and brighter. Do not spare the seasoned wood. Load up your heart with tinder that will create the best blaze possible. Keep the fire roaring, all consuming.
It is better to have burned all the wood to ash than to idly watch time and complacency rot away the stockpile.
