I have always loved a good quote and marveled how all of the old fashioned women in movies like "Rebecca of Sunny Brook Farm, Pride and Prejudice, and Emma all had a witty quote to say right off the bat when their intelligence was questioned.
I have gathered quite a few favorite quotes by now and will be sharing some of them with you.

ReplyDeleteGreat post! I love: No two persons ever read the same book. It is so true and that's what we writers have to remind ourselves of - writing is subjective :)

One very early morning on the way to work a few years back, I was IN a rainbow! For what was probably no longer than two seconds, my husband and I drove through what looked like huge dropping tears from a chandelier. hundreds of them. Each droplet was sparkling and mist surrounded them all the mist was pink/red/yellow hues.
ReplyDeleteWe both were awestruck. We think it might have been b/c of being so early in the morning and the slant of the sun. God surprised and blessed us big that day. We were also happy that part of the road was straight and we didn't go off the berm!
I hope we all ride/slide rainbows together some day.
