Those who matter

Quote found in Google+

Sometimes the censor/s come from without, sometimes from within. Unless this blogging site disappears, I hope wee little winkee Butones brings with her, as she increases in size and discovers a wide and wider world, this essential lesson from Dr. Seuss--to be unafraid to be herself. 

Yup, it was through his books that I learned how to read. It is through his books (Mamay Kimi works to save up for them, buy at Book Sale branches one title at a time) that I hope Butones returns time and again for the essentials so she can fortify herself to just be herself and not find that being herself is a matter to apologize for. Confusing? Go ask the cat in the hat.

The best job

“Yep ! I’ll pick the very best job that I can
When I finally grow up and turn into a man.
But now… well, right now when I’m still sort of small,
The best job is dreaming, with no work at all.”— from The Bippolo Seed and Other Lost Stories by Dr Seuss, quoted by www.booksactually.com
