The World by Dr Seuss (courtesy of Linda, as found on Derfwad Manor in the comments)

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those that matter don't mind." Dr. Seuss

This is one of the greatest quotations I've ever seen.

Seeing Miss G head off to college made me think back and think about my formative years, which are broadly ongoing.

But really, most of the sound decisions I've made, came out of the sticking to the stuff that I know about me, and the values I hold to be true.

So there we go folks:

To thine ownself be true.
If it harm none, do what you will.

and other such truisms.
Peace out folks

This is a quote I have had on my desk for years. I'm glad I could pass it along and that it rings true for you as well.

I have this on my desk:

The person at the top of the mountain did not fall there

to make me strive

and also

there will never be enough time, you will have to make some

to remind me to prioritise the stuff that's important in

anyone else?
