whether you’re walking your dog through the neighborhood
in your silky pajamas and slippers late in the morning,
or carrying a big bag of cash down the main street
during the rush hour
always walk with confidence and your head held high.
“find out who you are and do it on purpose.”

I think it was football coach Vince Lombardi who said, “Autograph your work with excellence.” That’s what I thought of when I read Dolly’s quote here, Beth.

I could never understand how people could go out and about in their PJ’s..I mean they’re for sleeping in right and lounging around the house. You wouldn’t catch Dolly doing that! :)) Chris
