Quote of the Week

Animals make you feel good, too.
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
- Maya Angelou 

This is a powerful statement.  Whether good or bad, people will remember the emotions you inspired in them.   Let's hope that people come away from us feeling uplifted and good about themselves.

Gray Days

Once upon a time in the land of trolls, unicorns were revered, and the brilliant blaze of the morning sky meant safe passage.  Gray days were to be feared for that is when the trolls came out of their hidden lairs beneath the bridges. Woe unto anyone who dared venture forth on a gray day.
