“Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.” ―Epicurus
Gratitude
Cultivate The Habit
"Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude." —Ralph Waldo Emerson
Here’s What I’ve Learned
2015 has been many things for me, but it's hard, at the moment, to say it's been kind. That would be a lie. Granted, there are pluses and minuses to every day, week, month, and year. It hasn't all been bad, but it's been hard times a million. We've all experienced this in some capacity … Continue reading Here’s What I’ve Learned
Feel…
“Feel gratitude for all the good in the past that brought you to this point in your life; and appreciation for whatever is unfolding in your reality in the present; and celebration for the wonderful things that are making their way towards you in your future.” -Jeff Mullan

Where The Hell Does The Year Go?
Where The Hell Does The Year Go? Every year I’m semi-amazed I’ve survived and gotten this far: Both in life and in the day-to-day struggle. I have a lot to be grateful for. I’ve had an incredibly rough two years. The years before that were not perfect, some were horrific in their lack of kindness, … Continue reading Where The Hell Does The Year Go?
