If you were to walk into my classroom you would see that my desk has many colored index cards taped to it. These index cards are full of quotes that myself or someone else have found and given to me. Each of them has a special meaning to them...
"Stop staying 'I can't'. You can. You just chose not to."
"Half a truth is often a great lie." -Franklin
"Keep your heart open to dreams. For as long as there's a dream, there is hope, and as long as there is hope, there is joy in living."
"People who judge you only serve to sentence themselves while you go free. There's no need to defend yourself. Let them be."
"The moment you think about giving up, think of the reason you held on so long."
"Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths when you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength."
"You may no always end up where you thought you were going...but you will always end up where you were meant to be."
"Believe down deep in your heart that you're destined to do GREAT THINGS!"
"Never let the odds keep you from doing what you know in your heart you were meant to do."
"You can let your smile change people, but don't let people change your smile."
"Life is too short to stress yourself with people who don't even deserve to be an issue in your life." -Anonymous

"A place for everything, everything in it's place." -Franklin
"ANY fool can criticize, condemn and complain, and most fools do." -Franklin
"If you love something let it go, if it comes back to you it's yours, if it doesn't it was never meant to be."
"You can erase someone from your life mind. Getting them out of your heart is another story."
"You have the patience, the strength, and the passion to achieve your ambitions, your goals and your dreams, all you need to do now is try."
"There are FAR FAR better things ahead then any we leave behind."
Feel free to share any that you feel are worth remembering. My plan is to add onto this each time I find one that hits home!
