Joyce Digby Nelson is a licensed registered occupational therapist and educator. She had a desire to be of service to others at a young age and now has more than 25 years of professionally meeting the needs of others via health care services and public education. It wasn’t until Joyce found herself repeating the sayings idioms, axioms, and clichés in this book to her daughter and friends that she decided to start writing them down. Some of the sayings were coined from scripture to prompt critical thinking; others were to motivate and inspire, and a few were not so nice but raised a few eyebrows with a request to repeat.
