When you’re about to take a reluctant summer sabbatical, you want to step out on a high note. You want to leave wise words for anyone who happens by while you’re away, something a little more pithy than “Back soon, thanks for dropping by.”

This will be my last post until September. It’s a few days late (and for those of you who were wondering, yes, there are still issues with the feed).

As I sat working on a number of uninspiring first drafts, this little gem drifted by on my Twitter stream, from @Marelisa:

“It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt

And within minutes, from @escapeintolife:

“You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land, there is no other life but this.”
— Henry David Thoreau

Puts a few things into perspective, doesn’t it.

If only it were as easy as tacking a couple of inspirational quotes on your bulletin board.
