Today I am excited about everything



I think there is something to be said about being excited. I am someone who constantly likes to have something – even if it’s a small thing – to be excited about and look forward to at all times. Today, I’m excited that there are only three days until the weekend and that one week from today I’ll be heading to Ohio and that days at work seem to be flying by and that the weather has been gorgeous!

Today’s Words for Wednesday is all about being excited and embracing excitement. The Hank Green quote below is what I’m all about: “Read books. Care about things. Get excited. Try not to be too down on yourself. Enjoy the ever present game of knowing.

Write down five things you are excited about this morning – it’ll help you remember the little {and big} things that make life so much happier and better! xx

p.s. I have that top image “Today I am excited about everything” printed and hanging at my desk at work! What a refreshing reminder on a daily basis.

let’s do something amazing



Happy Wednesday! Today’s Words for Wednesday shares a few quotes/images that relate to my life lately. Where am I these days? I’m focusing on loving everyone, embracing messy hair {every day}, drinking lots of tea, reading as often as I can, singing at the top of my lungs with friends, enjoying every piece of life’s “cake”, striving to do good on a daily basis and appreciating where I’m at even if it’s not where I initially thought I’d be.

I’m currently still on an emotional high from an enchanting and silly weekend! The wonderful thing about Wednesdays is that we are halfway to the next. Enjoy today! xx

cheerful in every situation




Good morning lovely friends! I like to think of all blog readers as my friends even though I haven’t met many of you in person {yet!}. Anyway, today I want to talk about being cheerful.

Cheerful by the dictionary definition means “Noticeably happy and optimistic, Causing happiness by its nature or appearance.” Many people view cheerfulness as an emotional high or a constant state of happiness or as naïveté.

Instead of viewing cheerfulness as an overwhelming intense feeling of joy or a flat-out refusal of what is going on, I want to encourage you to view it as a settled disposition. Reread that Martha Washington quote up there; it’s brilliant. To me, being cheerful means that you ARE in fact very well aware of what is going on around you, but willing to face the challenges and the day itself head on with a joyful spirit.

I know every day won’t be absolutely wonderful; to be honest some days are just rotten and I want to curl into a ball. I’ll take a wild guess you’ve been there too. Cheerfulness is beyond what is going on in the world around us or what our day-to-day lives hold. Living out of cheerfulness means means approaching situations with the positive expectation that you can overcome them. Because you most definitely can — and will.

Hope you choose to live cheerfully today! xx
