Hi!
This is a direct appeal!
I have a new journal, agenda, datebook, calendar - whatever you might call it. It starts NOW and goes for 18 months! That's a lot of weeks - like, um....78?
Yes, it's an old-fashioned paper, bound book. I have a Google Calendar and all, but I like to write things down. (Writer. It's what we do.)
So...I got this idea to pepper the book with quotes. I collect quotes and have been for a long time. I started filling in short quotes I like in the Monday slot of each week in the diary (another word!). They can't be too long, as there is not that much room, and I might still need to write appointments in on the day.
What I'm going for is to have a hand-written quote for each Monday of the next 18 months. I've gotten a lot, but many of the quotes I've saved are quite long.
Here's my plea:
Do you have any short quotes that you just LOVE? That inspire you, keep you going, set you on your way, affirm your choices, make you laugh in dark times?
Please - if you do - post them in the comments below.
I am hoping to place them variously in the book and forget about them sufficiently that I will be surprised each Monday. I'm also hoping that my somewhat random placement will end up being apt and serendipitous when I do turn the page on a new quote. I'm pre-placing inspiration - something I've never had the forethought to do before, but something I think might be a good idea!
I'd be so happy if you'd share something! Thank you in advance!
