This site is dedicated to the students of Thompson High School who encouraged, nay pushed me to do something special with my daily Parker’s Point to Ponder. Quotes from the famous and not so famous, born as a method of beginning a class with a thoughtful message. A quote that would challenge them to look beyond the surface and find a deeper meaning. Something to Ponder. Their response to the PPP warmed my heart. So I continued with it daily.

This site is threefold. First, I needed a way to reach all the students every day with this challenge. Second, I wanted to give them a place to go where they might have a voice. A place to submit their thoughts, dreams and comments. And third, to grow beyond the classroom to others who might be inspire or entertained with these words of wisdom gathered for inspiration.  Read, comment, contribute, but most of all simply enjoy; it’s for you.
