Yes...my name is Cassie and I used to be one of those girls who collected quotes. In eighth grade I was quite the note writer. I had cool ways to fold notes, cool colored pens in which to write them in, and cool quotes to always stick down at the bottom next to my signature.
Yes. That was my thing.
I had several little notebooks in which I wrote them down in so that I could look them up whenever I needed to sign something.
So on this 30-Day Blogger Challenge, the favorite quote day should be a piece of cake. Right?
Wrong!
I now find them to be kind of lame...especially those that talk about landing among the stars. I recently took my Red Wing FFA chapter to the 83rd National FFA Convention where the keynote speaker was Josh Shipp, and he said that he hated that quote too. Especially because if you land amongst a star you'll burst in to flames.
But what he did say was something actually pretty great. He wasn't inspirational, (which I think was his point), he was realistic.

Day 5: Your Favorite Quote
"Your life could be either lame or legendary. You decide."
- Josh Shipp
That works pretty well for me. Pretty well indeed. It also goes hand in hand with another quote (actually it's a song lyric) that I've grown somewhat partial to recently:
"We are once in a lifetime."
- Switchfoot

So take those and meditate on them.
