Taking Stock...and a Quotation for Today

If you've been here awhile, you may have noticed that somewhere along the way I started adding "born on this day" posts and quotations as part of my main post of the day. And then this week I stopped. The reason? Well, in part it was because once I lost power and missed posting for several days, I had broken the cycle of who was born when, anyway, but also I discovered that when I set up multiple posts and saved them as drafts (for a rainy day, you know) the born on this day aspect made posts less versatile (can't post a born on April 2nd on July 28th).

Plus, I wasn't sure they were all that interesting to begin with and it was clearly only going to be a one-year project. That said, I do love interesting quotations, so now and then I think I'll throw a few of those things up as part of a post or as a post with an image. Just so you know why they just...vanished.

So, here's a quotation I've been saving. I put it up on Facebook once a long time ago, but since then it's been sitting in a drawer on a pretty postcard just waiting to have its turn again.

Quotation of the Day - "Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you've never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground." - Judith Thurman
