The three things I fear most in golf are lightning, Ben Hogan and a downhill putt.

The three things I fear most in golf are lightning, Ben Hoga

Summary

This quote humorously expresses the speaker's fear of three things in golf: lightning, the legendary golfer Ben Hogan, and uphill putts. Lightning is naturally feared due to its unpredictable and potentially dangerous nature on the golf course. Ben Hogan, regarded as one of the greatest golfers of all time, is feared jokingly because of his exceptional skills that may intimidate the speaker. Lastly, downhill putts can be challenging as they require careful control and judgment. Through this lighthearted quote, the speaker playfully highlights their apprehension towards these elements in the game of golf.

Our souls are not hungry for fame, comfort, wealth or power. Those rewards create almost as many problems as they solve. Our souls are hungry for meaning, for the sense that we have figured out how to live so that our lives matter, so that the world will be at least a little bit different for our having passed through it.
