About

Hi, my name is Maryanne, and welcome to my little corner of the internet, Sparkling Quotes!

Let’s be honest, life can get messy sometimes. Between juggling laundry, grocery lists, and maybe even a carpool or two, it is easy to forget to take a breath and appreciate the beauty around us. That is why I created Sparkling Quotes – a place to find inspiration and a little pick-me-up whenever you need it most.

Sparkling Quotes’ Beginnings

Sparkling Quotes was not always a thing, believe it or not! It all started in my cozy kitchen in suburban Chicago. Back then, mornings were a rollercoaster of packing lunches, making sure everyone got out the door on time, and trying not to burn the toast. (P.S. The toast got burnt on some days 🤭)

One morning, I stumbled across a quote about finding joy in the simple things. It was like a lightbulb went off! In the rush of daily life, I had forgotten the magic in everyday moments – a child’s laughter, a warm cup of coffee, the way sunlight falls on the kitchen floor. That is when I started collecting quotes that resonated with me, words that could bring a smile or a spark of inspiration, even on the most hectic days.

Sharing these little bits of brightness with others just felt right. So, Sparkling Quotes was born. It is a place to share uplifting quotes and greetings to help you find your own sparkle, no matter how crazy life gets.

What’s the Sparkling Quotes All About?

Maybe you are wondering where the name “Sparkling Quotes” came from. Well, it all goes back to those early mornings in my kitchen. Remember the burned toast? Yeah, those mornings!

Even amidst the chaos, I found that inspirational quotes had a way of lighting up my day. They were like little pockets of sunshine, reminding me to find joy in the simple things, even the slightly burnt toast.

That is what Sparkling Quotes is all about – sharing those little sparks of inspiration to help you find your own inner sparkle, no matter how ordinary or messy life might seem. Because let’s be honest, life is not always perfectly polished, but it can still be beautiful, don’t you think?

This Blog’s Purpose

Sparkling Quotes is not just about pretty words, although there are plenty of those to be found! It is about reminding you of the sparkle that already exists within you. Life can get messy, sure, but that does not mean it can’t be beautiful too.

Here, you will find uplifting quotes and greetings to help you find your own inner light, no matter what your day throws your way. Maybe it is a quote to inspire creativity, a pick-me-up for a tough morning, or just a friendly hello to brighten your day.

About Me

Let’s face it, life is not a perfectly styled Instagram post (though I do love a good filter sometimes!). I am Maryanne, a wife, momma of two, and a self-proclaimed “sparkle spreader” here in suburban Chicago.

While I may not have it all figured out, I am a firm believer in finding the magic in the everyday. Whether it is a kid’s laughter echoing through the house or a quote that makes me stop and breathe, these little moments are what make life sparkle!

Besides the usual mom duties, I love getting lost in a good book, exploring my artistic side, and taking rejuvenating hikes. You might even find me down a YouTube rabbit hole, learning about hidden historical stories.

So, that is a little bit about me! Welcome to Sparkling Quotes, and let’s find your inner sparkle together!

Why I Love Blogging?

Sparkling Quotes might be all about sharing inspirational words, but you know what? There is something pretty darn inspiring about creating it, too!

Being a “sparkle spreader” (yes, I totally made up that title!) brings me so much joy. Maybe it is the creative process – from hunting down the perfect quotes to designing a cheerful website. Perhaps it is connecting with people who find meaning in the words I share. Or maybe it is a little bit of both!

Let’s be honest, finding the perfect career path can be a bumpy road. For the longest time, I felt like my interests were all over the place – art, metaphysics, hidden history, you name it! Who knew there was a place for all that in one person? Well, blogging did. It allows me to take all those seemingly random passions and turn them into something that (hopefully!) brightens your day.

That is why I love encouraging others to find their own sparkle. Because when you embrace what makes you unique and chase after your dreams, well, that is the most magical thing of all. So get out there, explore your passions, and don’t be afraid to let your own light shine!
