What a fantastic post Maddy! LOVE it! Goodbye to Oprah. I can't believe she has been on for 25 years. I was 8 when she started : )
ReplyDeleteShe will be missed! I love her pay if forward attitude and education is power. She is a classy lady with a heart of gold.
ReplyDeleteSuch pearls from Oprah. She will leave a big hole in a lot of peoples lives. I didn't watch her everyday, but just knowing she won't be there at 1pm on weekdays makes me sad.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ride Oprah!!!
My favourite - "Live your best life."
