What is it about bookstores?? I went to Borders by myself for a while yesterday. I can't remember the last time I went to a bookstore by myself and I was almost giddy. Just the smell and being surrounded by shelf upon shelf filled with books. I love it! I rarely even read anymore (which is sad --gotta work on that!), but I still LOVE books!
I didn't spend a long time there, but I did find a bookmark with a quote I don't recall ever seeing before. I probably have heard or seen it, but I love it, so I had to share it.
"It is never too late to be what you might have been." -- George Eliot
Isn't that a great quote?? Really -- what a great thing to remember. I know I for one feel like maybe I've missed my opportunity for this or that sometimes, but really -- why should we ever feel that way? It's never too late to put our minds to something and achieve our goals. It's just a matter of working at it, right?
I love good quotes -- and this one is now in my top five.
Hope it inspires you in some way as well. Happy Monday!
