Playing in Paradise Challenge #34 - Inspired by Books

Our DT member Tracy (also a Cal-gal) is quite the bibliophile. Actually, all the Cal-gals are...I am the only one who rarely, if ever, picks up a book (too many other addictions, I'm afraid). For today's Playing in Paradise challenge, Tracy asked us to pick a quote from a book which would inspire a creation. This one really got me thinking...and then I was burning to make lots more with all the book quotes I thought up!

For my book, I chose Anne of Green Gables. I was pretty influenced by the reckless redhead from PEI. And, like her, I always (and still!) find myself in jams. If I didn't think about this quote from time to time, I do think I would get more chagrined about life. But, you have to persist in thinking that "Tomorrow is always fresh, with no mistakes in it". In fact, it was watching the series again and hearing Ms. Avery quote it back to Anne that made me think that "Avery" would be a good name for a baby when I was pregnant with her. And I guess it was!
