Before you get on me for copying my dad- I'm not. Winnie the Pooh was just a large part of my childhood that I dearly appreciated; and because of this I wanted to write a post about it. My dad's post just happened to inspire me. My dad did snatch up most of the good quotes that I wanted to use in this post; so it seems I'll have to do some deeper digging to find mine.. but honestly; for a children's book series the quotes that can be found within it are very good and fortunately for me; very many.
As I mention the quotes, if I have anything to say about them I will. I don't want this post to seem like TOO much of a knock-off of my dad's. "A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference." I've written a few posts about this before that explore this subject in further detail, but it's quite true. Sometimes even a simple compliment can change someone's day around; and if you have a small opportunity to be nice... then by all means, do so. "Weeds are flowers, too, once you get to know them." Simple though it may be, I love the message that this quote conveys. While it might mean something else, I took it as a judgment of outward beauty compared to inward beauty... some people may not be the most attractive on the outside; but if they have a beautiful soul it doesn't matter. I truly believe that beauty is defined by what's on the inside anyway; and that outer appearance barely matters. "One of the advantages of being disorganized is that one is always having surprising discoveries." This quote speaks to me on a spiritual level; honestly. I am an extremely disorganized person and I tend to "go with the flow" of things on a regular basis. The quote is right- doing so will lead you to some surprising discoveries... some of which create the best memories you'll have. “I don't see much sense in that," said Rabbit. "No," said Pooh humbly, "there isn't. But there was going to be when I began it. It's just that something happened to it along the way.” - Maddie
