Today is Scrabble Day ! Scrabble was created in 1938 by Alfred Mosher Butts. It is sold by Hasbro, Inc. It's been popular around the world ever since. People young and old enjoy this game.
It's very easy to celebrate Scrabble Day. Just get out the old board game, dust it off, and play a few rounds with family or friends.
Life is more fun if you play games.
Roald Dahl
If you can't see the Bright Side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Life ain't easy. Terrible things happen to everyone. You have to keep your sense of humor, give something of yourself to others, make friends who are younger than you, learn new things, and have fun.
George Vaillant
I read an article about some great life lessons to be taken away from the act of placing letters on a board, and I'm going to share them with you today.
Being patient pays off.
A good defense can beat a good offense.
Make the most of the letters you've been dealt.
Don't be afraid to make a risky move.
A close game is a good game.
Nothing pays off like persistence.
It’s a great reminder for me that just about anything can provide inspiration and wisdom if you look for it. Just like looking on the Bright Side of life … it is there if you look for it.
Weave those very talents and lessons into the fabric of your daily life. No matter what game you are into, the valuable invitation is to lighten up, create ease, and lean into the learning around every corner.
Just sharing some thoughts for a Monday morning. Have a great day and a wonderful new week ahead!

I like Keep it simple; make it fun. I also like the strategies you listed for playing Scrabble Ma. So true about playing a good defense. I play "Word With Friends" with someone and she does play good defense (and usually wins at the very end too :) Scrabble is a great game in so many ways; I always enjoy playing it in any way it is able to be played; board game, online, etc.
