Learning is a treasure which accompanies us everywhere.

Everything has beauty but not everyone sees it.

You will get what your heart desires.

My father was incredibly offended by this one. "Why would they be amazed I was successful?"

I have a bunch of these on my fridge at home. :-) Nick put 2 of them next to each other a while back and it made me laugh:

Maybe you will live on the moon in next century.

Wish you good journey.


I got one in high school that read You will be fortunate in everything you put your hands to. I've always thought of it in terms of making art- putting my hands in art making always leads to good fortune, catharsis, expression....I still have that fortune, put it on a painted bottle. It's on my desk now :-) Funny how such a little thing can make you feel so good.
