"Make each day your masterpiece." John Wooden





I spend time every day reading and sharing inspirational quotes.  I like them, I like thinking about the messages, and I like applying each particular quote to my own life. Furthermore, I like sharing quotes - especially on Twitter. If you are not on Twitter, it can be a hate and anger-filled site, especially about politics.  I like to bypass all of that and share positive messages and quotes.

Guess what?  It seems that other people want to bypass the name-calling, insults, and politics, too.  Every single day, I have a score of re-tweets of my inspirational quotes, or a comment or two thinking me for posting the quote.  I think people want to feel better about the world and themselves, so I am going to keep right on sharing inspirational messages.

Just reading and sharing these kinds of messages lifts me up.  Here are a few of my favorites:

I LOVE writing. And I love writing children's books- my newest passion. Although it will be a ton of work, I am looking forward to selling my books.  Since I was a secondary teacher, I know that I have much to learn about elementary students, and I will have to follow my own advice and be my genuine self.  However, I also know that I am passionate about helping kids who have to wear glasses, and that GRADY GETS GLASSES sends a positive message. I am willing to work hard and do all the things that also made me a successful teacher for 37 years. I remain inspired!
