Beyonce and Marilyn Monroe

For a writer just coming out of obscurity, how do you know you're starting to make a dent in the public mind? When you utter a whisper, how do you even know someone is listening? Well, in my case, the answer is this: you know it when Beyonce and Marilyn Monroe start following you on Twitter! How cool is that! (And don't even bother hinting that Marilyn is no longer among us--she lives on!)

Look, this is what I find when I follow them back: both of these amazing divas have wise and poignant thoughts, which they express with the brevity necessary for Twitter communication.

"You can close your eyes to the things you don’t want to see, but you can’t close your heart to the things you don’t want to feel."

"You say you missed me, well I missed me too, because I was never myself whenever I was with you."

"You’re everything I thought you never were and nothing like I thought you could’ve been."

"In life; Good experiences will produce memorable moments and bad experiences will produce lessons."

"Kindness should never be confused with weakness! What someone doesn't do shouldn't ever be confused with what they are capable of doing."

"God and the Devil both have the power to grant your deepest desires; in the end, it’s the price you pay for them that matters."
