Week 16: Gratitude Journal

Week 16! Oh man, this past week was ah-mazing!

I didn’t realize what a difference it would make in my everyday life; writing down five simple things that I was grateful for seemed like such a small thing, but the more that I worked on it, the happier I became.

I realized how important gratitude is in our everyday lives, when I would write down the things that I was grateful for the night before, the next day I would look at the world with new eyes. I would see little things that I don’t notice on a day-to-day basis, little things that I take for granted every day, and I would look at them and see how blessed I am.

Everyday was like that, and every day I had a full heart realizing how amazing my life is, and how much I truly have. I’m so grateful for my family, my friends, my jobs, my struggles, my strengths… Looking at the world with gratitude is an amazing experience that I hope everyone tries at least once. Thanks

Week 13: Write Every Day

Writing Daily Challenge!

this past week was so fun and so HARD. I’ve always loved how free and creative I feel when I actually take the time to sit down and write. It’s just getting to that point that’s difficult. So making the time and then sitting there wondering what to write was a bit frustrating, but I found my stride soon enough.

I was really reminded how writing is like riding a bike; at first it was hard to make the sentences flow, but toward the end of the week my hand couldn’t move fast enough!

I love weeks like this that remind me of how passionate I can be about certain things!
