One of the Mama Kat prompts this week is “List 6 of your favorite quotes.” I am a huge quote freak but today I am sharing one, not six. I ran across this quote on social media recently, and it doesn’t need five other quotes competing for space when it says so much in sixteen words. The quote is:
Find a tiny stream in which your strengths can flow, and carve it
into the Mississippi.

I agree!! Wish I had made the “wordless” even less “wordless” and added the fact that the body of water is called “Change Creek” – perfect, right? Thanks for your comment!
