Anne Shirley: You know something, Diana? We are rich. We have sixteen years to our credit, and we both have wonderful imaginations. We should be as happy as queens.

Anne Shirley: Look at that. You couldn’t enjoy its loveliness more if you had ropes of diamonds.

I think you may be a kindred spirit after all.  – Anne of Green Gables

I am a huge Lucy Maud Montgomery fan! Anne Shirley and Gilbert Blythe of the Anne of Green Gables series were my favorite fictional characters as a child, as they were for most Canadian girls. (And, thanks to director and producer Kevin Sullivan, they are for my daughters’ generation, as well. )

It was Anne Shirley who filled my head with the notion of how wonderful it would be for your kindred spirit and your love interest to be one and the same.

Tomorrow is fresh, with no mistakes in it.
L.M. Montgomery – Anne of Green Gables

I love to walk early in the morning, mostly because as I circle round the neighborhood, uninterrupted by sidewalk traffic, I set my intentions for the day. With foolish optimism, I envision all the incredible tasks that I plan to complete by nightfall and the cosmic gold stars I will receive for doing so. These fancies are as fleeting as the clouds pictured above and, by the time I am within a block of home, I have already given up on them.
