WONDERFUL! Especially considering my life at the moment...hmmm. A great book kinda along these lines that I just read for book club..."the Alchemist". I really enjoyed it. It made me feel a little more ready to accept and face change in my life.

I am a "Quote Addict". I love them and seek them out all over the place.

When I was at BYU, my roommate and I literally wallpapered our room with quotes, ripped out of magazines, typed up, on posters, whatever...and we both still love them! One of my latest favorites: "Everything that ever was, is or will be, started with a dream"
--Lava Girl (from the movie Shark boy and Lava Girl)

I am considering painting it on Maddie's bedroom wall.
