Monday Mantra

5.20.2013

With a few of my friends graduating this past week and weekend, besides reflecting on my own graduation, I can't help but flip through one of my favorite books/the book I love to give for graduation, Oh, The Places You'll Go by Dr. Seuss. No matter how many times I look through this book, something new always strikes me and it is always so relevant. While it may be considered a "book for children," I love how anyone journeying through life can connect with the story, no matter what their age may be.

What is motivating you, mantra or otherwise, for this week?

  1. Gotta love Dr. Seuss! I was at a graduation this past weekend and the speaker quoted Walt Disney. Of course I can't remember the full quote though ;)

  5. My mantra is relatively the same- just keep on, keeping on. Sometimes I feel like when everything seems out of place and overwhelming, sticking to the routine (or to do list) is the best way to get to feeling like yourself again.

    LOVE that you give this book as a graduation present, different and practical!
