How did I miss this post? The end of the school year's always really hectic around here.....I'm just glad I saw it- I could use some of that daily inspiration, myself:)
Thanks for this, great way to start the day :) I was reading your post about your mom too and I hope you are not having a very hard time, although it is hard to see your parents like this. Sending you healing, strength vibes :) Lynn
"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!” -Jack Kerouac
