Here’s today’s inspirational quote:

         “If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss. He doesn’t have tenure.”

                                                                 BILL GATES

Also, I wanted to mention here one lady by the name of Mollie, whose email I received a couple of days ago. Like the rest of us, she is also looking for ways to ‘better her life.’

She is making use of her talents by being a gospel singer and pianist. She needs votes to win a Gospel talent contest at  www.libertyassociates.net. When you get to the home page-read the part that says Vote now and click the link. Go to the senior section, scroll and you will see her name-Mollie Jackson.  Click on it and it should load the video (although the video is short :( , you can hear her nice voice).

So go ahead and vote for her. Let’s support her, woman-to-woman!

In my daily grind as a work-at-home and [mom], I constantly face frustration, despair, hopelessness and failure. But, almost always I would come across a snippet of inspiration- either in the form of a poem, a song, a quote, a passage, or an article excerpt- that buoys my spirit and gives me renewed strength.

So I thought why not let others be inspired too? Thus this (almost) daily dose of inspiration.

Here’s one for today:

                                    “If you think you can or
                                              You think you can’t
                                                      You are always right.”

                                                                 Henry Ford
