Words of Wisdom....Wish They Were Mine

Sadly, I don't have a lot of originality flowing through my fingertips today. My kids have been relatively un-amusing. Coach has been pretty normal. Not much out of the ordinary has happened lately that I haven't already talked about.

I've found myself thinking quite a bit lately about life, and what makes it important. Between the recent sports drama, and the heartache over D, I've just flat out been thinking a lot. Period. And I've found that when I think, I tend to turn to quotes from others that resonate with something in my soul. Since so many of you also resonate with my soul, I'm going to share some of my favorites with you. I hope you they touch you in some way, the way they have touched me. If not..... *shrug* oh well. :)
