The other day a man asked me if anything good was going on in my life and, being in dreary mood I replied truthfully, 'No, not really.' He looked at me a little concerned and said, well didn't Shakespeare say 'Nothing is good or bad, but thinking makes it so'? Which is from my favorite Shakespeare play, Hamlet. The man who brought up the quote made me realize I'd been moping around for too long, and that I've been letting others/things dictate how I feel, instead of putting myself in control of things. It may seem contrived, but I really value the interjection of an inspirational quote every now and again, and I'm glad this inspiration didn't strike me from a tea bag tag, in a fortune cookie, or from a tumblr blog.

Something I need to remember as well. Did you design this?
