5 Things to be Happy About

1. I'm finally back to blogging. May tends to always be a crazy month for me; in the best possible way. But as a result, I wasn't able to blog nearly as much as I would have liked to. PS: My blog got a makeover. It's not 100% done, but I'm so happy with the changes.

2. I tried a new color combo; blue and yellow. This is a big deal for me being that I basically live in pink and green. It turns out that I actually kinda liked it.

3. It wouldn't be a good week without a trip to an ice cream shop. ;)

4. I introduced some new products and am currently having a sale; woohoo!

5. I booked a trip to the Bahamas. I'm really bad at taking rests/breaks, so this is going to be a first for me. Its not until August, but I'm already counting down the days.

This Will Change You

I feel like I've been in a bit of a dry spell when it comes to blogging. It's not that I don't have anything to say, but rather haven't quite found the words. I have some posts stored up as drafts just waiting for a day when I feel brave enough to hit publish. The last few weeks I've been trying to soak up just how blessed I truly am. I feel like the more we immersed ourselves online, the easier it is to slip into a comparison mindset. I always feel the need to pull myself offline a little bit more when moments like those creep in.

There is this one daily commitment I made to myself and let me tell you; its a game changer. A few years ago, I started to write down 3-5 items that I was thankful for at the end of every day. At first, I did it every once in awhile when I remembered. But I started to notice a pattern where the more often I did it, the fuller my heart felt. Teaching/training your heart to be full of gratitude is no ease task especially when in the day and age of technology we live in. But I can promise that the more things you write down you are thankful for, the less you feel a need to fill your life with more.
