Every Day Matters

As we've all heard before "every day matters".  May sound trite, but it's true.  Every day counts.  And that's why it's so important that we don't waste a moment.  That we soak it all in, let go of our frustrations/regrets, focus on the here and now, and bring out our best!  We can do this!

In Closing...

From Madisyn Taylor

The tales you lose yourself in can lead you on paths of discovery that take you out of your own life and help you see that existence can unfold in an infinite number of ways. You can learn so much from the characters and mentors who guide you from page to page. Your emotions are awakened each time you read, allowing you to become vessels of the passion that pours forth from line after line of print. Ultimately, the books you absorb--those that touch you deeply--will become a part of who you are, providing you with a rich and thrilling world within that you can revisit anytime you wish by simply closing your eyes. If you haven't read a book for pleasure lately, try and allow yourself the time--you deserve it.
