30 days of photos - Day 6: Inspired by a poem

I cheated today... its not really a poem. Allt he poems i know are kinda sad or deep and I'm not particularly feeling in a sad or deep mood.

I love this story by Dr Suess and I think about it every time i put ZJ's shoes on. I wanted to get a pic of him in his shoes but he left early today to go adventuring at the zoo (Thanks Jody!) and is finishing off his trip by staying over at his aunt and uncles tonight (Thanks again guys!) so it was a no go for today.

Anyway, without further ado..

Oh! The Places You’ll Go!

by the incomparable Dr. Seuss

Congratulations!

Today is your day.

You’re off to Great Places!

You’re off and away!

You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself any direction you choose.

You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the guy who’ll decide where to go.

You’ll look up and down streets. Look’em over with care. About some you will say, “I don’t choose to go there.” With your head full of brains and your shoes full of feet, you’re too smart to go down a not-so-good street.

And you may not find any you’ll want to go down. In that case, of course, you’ll head straight out of town. It’s opener there in the wide open air.

Out there things can happen and frequently do to people as brainy and footsy as you.

And when things start to happen, don’t worry. Don’t stew. Just go right along. You’ll start happening too.
