My Inspiration
"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go!"
– Dr. Seuss
This simple and catchy quote is a reminder of how important and transformative education can be.
"Whatever you are, be a good one."
– attributed to Abraham Lincoln
I find it an inspirational thought that, while goals will look different for each individual, we can always work towards growth and improvement.
