Doing my part to make the world a better place—whether it be by a total epiphany or a simple smile—I've found a hobby in leaving simple Post-it notes. On these Post-its are written words of kindess, love, and encouragement, in hopes that it may bring a little light to whoever may find it. Since this objective took flight, I've additionally enjoyed simply sharing daily occurances that make life beautiful. Do take what you can from my silly, messy, and scatterbrained story. If nothing else, may it encourage you to embrace your own.

Giving Gratitude

Happy Thanksgiving Eve!

I'm grateful for Post-it notes and thoughtful words, yes I am!

(This note went up at school by the water fountain. Fishing for some more Post-it seekers? You caught me!)(And this lovely note went up in a bathroom of a retaurant that my friend, Britt, and I visted this afternoon. So fun!)
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.
It turns what we have into enough, and more.
It turns denial into acceptance,
chaos to order, confusion to clarity.
It can turn a meal into a feast,
a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.
Gratitude makes sense of our past,
brings peace for today and
creates a vision for tomorrow.
-Melody Beattie
May you have a lovely holiday! And spread the thanks - It usually will cause a ripple effect of, well... Gratitude. :-)
