"Then read through the treasured volume the poems of thy choice, and lend to the rhyme of the poet, the beauty of thy voice." ~ Henry W. Longfellow

Every Tid-bit Counts
It is the written word that I love. It is the written word that frees me from the jumbled, stumbling elementary vocabulary that I tend to spew in conversation. I have always had a love affair with words. They have mesmerized me, transported me, sheltered and succored me, and yes, they have even eluded me. But whether the written words are my own or someone else's, I take note of them . . . I jot them down . . . I hold onto them . . . I journal them so that one day (like this day), I can share them. I hope you like them. I hope you share your words.

I need to keep a pen and notebook handy where ever I go. I hear great things and think that I will remember them and then I get home and, poof, it's gone. sigh. It gets so frustrating sometimes. Even just the conversations I have with my kids...all lost because I don't just write them down. I'm going to do better. Thanks for the inspiration!
