Advice

Blog Every Day In May



Today: Some advice for you.

I haven't even lived very long, I am only 22 years old. However, in the short amount of time I have lived I can give one piece of advice that has been something I live by everyday. 

Enjoy the little things.

I know, it sound so cliche but it is also so very very true. Life is full of big events, stress, worry and fear and those things can take over a person. If you take a minute to stop. 

breathe


and enjoy something around you. It doesn't have to be amazing, it can be a pretty flower, a perfectly rounded snow cone, a good hair day, new polish on your toes. Any little thing that can bring a smile, appreciate it and move on with your day focusing on those things. 

Trust me, I have had my share of stress. I mean I have been in college for the past four years and working with young children, there is plenty of stress to be had. But, I never let it take me over. I have always been good at stopping and taking time to notice things that are going good. I thank God for the things that are positive around me and that just brightens the day. 

So do it, take time to enjoy the little things and don't stress or worry or fear. 

Here are some of my "little things" recently.
