THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Anagrams are words and phrases whose letters can be arranged to form new words or phrases.  For example:  Statue of Liberty becomes built to stay free, William Shakespeare becomes I’ll make a wise phrase and “the United States of America” becomes “the dream, fine cause, toast it” 

Maybe you can come up with one?

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

“I wanted a perfect ending.  Now I’ve learned, the hard way, that some poems don’t rhyme, and some stories don’t have a clear beginning, middle, and end.  Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what’s going to happen next.”
