The amazing thing about love and attention and encouragement and grace and success and joy is that these things are infinite. We get a new supply every single morning, and so we can give it away all day. We never, ever have to monitor the supply of others or grab or hoard.

The Burgess Battery Company (Burgess) was founded by Dr. Charles F. Burgess in Madison, Wisconsin, and incorporated on March 1, 1917. The United States entered World War I a month later on April 6. During the war, Burgess collaborated with the US Army Signal Corps to develop quality batteries for radio communication equipment.
I had no idea this company existed until I saw an ad for it on a fellow member of the larger Burgess family’s Facebook page. It’s cool that this existed. I know my dad would have found this to be really cool. I know I do. The company no longer exists but their legacy lives on.
