Today I got the privilege of observing my friend Rachel in her A.P. Literature class. My grad class requires these observations every now and then. I do enjoy the chance to get out and use my thinking mind more than my dish-washing hands or very-big-baby-holding arms. However, I do not enjoy leaving Sam for the day and MAN is it exhausting to be up and out the door with two of us ready for the day so early! Yuck! On the bright side, Rachel’s room was pleasantly full of insightful quotes. I copied a few down that I liked to share with you.
– “There’s only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self. So you have to begin there, not outside, not on other people. That comes afterwards, when you have worked on your own corner.” ~Aldous Huxley
– “Wash what is dirty. Water what is dry. Heal what is wounded. Warm what is cold. Guide what goes off the road. Love those who are least lovable, because they need it most.” ~I forgot to copy down who wrote this
– “Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
