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.

The Small Things

Good evening blogworld!

I've been workin' my little tail off on some "important" school stuff so that I could reward myself with some good blog time this evening. Whoot, whoot. (Not to mention, I definitely owe a post and have been beckoned to update. Yes, Tim, this is your shout out!)

Hope you had a good weekend! The weather was a little under par... But I can't complain. Whenever I do, it snows more... Some weird relationship I have with Mother Nature.

My weekend update begins on Friday when I left this note o' love...Filling up for gas (and crying--Okay, kidding. But hardly.), I left the Post-it on the pump. The note connects to the sucky weather that seems to be never-ceasing around here. The forecast, however, for this coming weeks looks mighty hopeful!

And then in other news, I spent Saturday/Sunday college visiting with a girlfriend. So fun! It makes me a little giddy to think that I could go to school there someday... Needless to say, I did ask politely to be left on campus. Not so much.

I TOTALLY feel like I should not have to wait a whole 'nother year to get ready for college. Blaaaah. K, that's a bit dramatic. And morbid. But you get the point...

Patience probably isn't my best virtue.But I think waiting is MORE miserable (than it already is!) when you sacrifice the little joys of the present. Yes, they may seem super trivial and lame in comparison to the bigger mountain you're climbing, but they can only make the hike more bearable right? I can't think of any logic that would support a WORSE attitude after giving thanks for the small things. Small as they may be.

That's my thought for this week: Being intentionally grateful for the super tiny, microscopic, small things... While I wait for the big ones to happen. Join me?

G'night!

“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions” ~ Rainer Maria Rilke
