       Sometimes just one little word has the power to get you through the day, & that word is courage. Courage to be braver. Courage to do what is right. Courage to know that today is just one day, but to realize it means so much more than that. It may just be another Monday…

  • monday morning encouragement: it’s okay to be fancy

       Monday. I hate you, but I love you. It’s the end of freedom & the beginning of a long journey to reach the end of the week again. It’s a vicious inevitable cycle that we humans live for, the work week to end so that the weekend can begin, again. We think that only…

       Joy. It’s a word that’s hardly ever associated with an early Monday morning.

But, instead of seeing all the things we have…

  • monday morning encouragement: change the inevitable

       Somethings are inevitable, like Mondays. They happen with no question or say. And so do things like negative thoughts & bad moods. We don’t really want those things in our lives. But days & emotions are inevevitable & it’s what we do with them that change things up. So, change the inevitable. Choose to…
