Friends are the best

"A friend may well be reckoned the masterpiece of nature."-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Friends really are the best things that exist in human nature. If I could wish something for everyone I'd wish everyone a friend just because it's nice to know that people care about you. In that spirit, for what it's worth, if you're reading this, although I may never meet you, I do care about you and I wish you every happiness now and always!

The actor Orson Welles was born today in 1915 and I like this quote  because I feel like everyone has style, it's just a matter of a identifying it. I always thought it was interesting when people said "that's so you" or 'that's a very 'you' thing to do." I think it speaks to how the things we do say a lot about who we are, or at least how other people see us. Whatever style I may have, I feel like I'm always trying to find it and shape it to fit how I may change over time. So my point is, live in (your) style and let it shine! 

Have it all

I heard this lovely song by Jason Mraz today called "Have It All." I really like the song because (at least to me) it's all about wanting the best for people and spreading happiness! So I send this song out to everyone with lots of love and I sen best wishes to all!

Because it's May the 4th -just a bit of fun for Star Wars fans

To all Star Wars fans:

Never underestimate the power of the hug! May the 4th be with you!

Get up and dance!

The singer James Brown was born today in 1933 and I celebrate his birthday today by sharing this song called "Get up offa that thing." I like the song because to me it's all about choosing to dance regardless of everything.  I just know that dancing always makes me feel better. Anyway, I hope you have many reasons to dance (or at the very least feel like dancing) today! I wish everyone a very happy Thursday!

Happy Wednesday

I want to wish everyone the happiest of Wednesdays and an even happier Thursday!

A hypothetical conversation about chocolate

Hypothetical conversation between my head and my stomach 

My stomach: I want chocolate!
My head: You just ate dinner.
My stomach: I still want chocolate
My Head: Maggie decided that we'd go on that Mediterranean diet thingy to be healthier.
My stomach: Fine, you can go off and daydream about the Mediterranean and I'll get Maggie to eat chocolate!
My Head: Traitor!
My stomach: Funspunge! I'll bet the people stuck out in the middle of the Mediterranean eat chocolate! Dark chocolate is good for you, didn't you know that?! It's got that vitamin thingy.
My Head: Vitamin E.
My stomach: Yeah! That vitamin thingy!
My head: OHHHH LOOK! A WATER BOTTLE WITH A MINION ON IT!!!!
My stomach: OMG, OMG, OMG!
[Maggie drinks water]
My head: Ha! I win! Plus, in order to eat chocolate we have to go to the store to get it and I'm feeling tired.
My stomach: Just you wait, tomorrow I'll find something I want to eat that even you can't resist!
My head: Never underestimate my willpower!
My stomach: You just keep telling yourself that!
