Today i was reminded of how much i like Dr Seuss…sometimes a rhyme is the best way to express oneself:
Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.
How did it get so late so soon? Its night before its afternoon. December is here before its June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?
Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one!
A person’s a person, no matter how small.
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. You are the guy who’ll decide where to go.
Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So… get on your way.
Just tell yourself, Duckie, you’re really quite lucky!
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.
Young cat, if you keep your eyes open enough, oh, the stuff you would learn! The most wonderful stuff!
Fun is good!
such profundity in these lines! How sneaky of the good Dr. to mix cosmic truth with green eggs and ham.
this one is my favorite i think “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You.”
I have used that quote on some things we have given to our graduating seniors in the past few years …
