Oh, Monday

{via Pinterest}

There's so much negativity out in the world. It's hard to remain positive when everyone either brings your down or has ceased having hope. When getting rejection after rejection for job applications,  I just have to get back up and keep at it! So, stay positive, folks!

Now, I'm not so sure that I would recommend doing this out loud unless surrounded by a group of friends as I'm sure you'd get several strange looks, but it does makes you think. Anyone who reads knows that at any moment the plot can change. So, why not apply that to your life? Your life is obviously going to randomly change, and I think it's genius to relate it to a plot twist! If it didn't change, life {and books} would be very boring. Enjoy your plot twists this week!

Another Manic Monday

Lately the lack of job has really been getting to me. I'm getting restless and losing hope of finding something. However, my support system helps get me through the days of doubt. They give me words of support and motivation. I need to make myself more of an asset and be more assertive. That's at least what I'm telling myself lately. I need to stay positive!

So, I know that last week my quote had to do with champagne, but I just had to share this one. What's better than champagne? Champagne and sequins! They make life worth living.

Well...not really, but they are pretty awesome and make every day better. And, I totally agree that a smile is a woman's best accessory. A simple smile can change anything!

For Beautiful Lips: Speak Only Words of Kindness

I think there is something very truthful and elegant to this quote. Not everything we think we want is meant for us, and there is always a reason for that. It's best to let go and move past that. Every day should be a new day to choose to love and live in a meaningful way. As Cassie and I both like to remind ourselves, every day is a new day to start over. :)

Now, if you grew up with a daddy like mine, you've probably heard something similar to this quote. Whenever anyone did something remotely foolish, he would chime in with a smile on his face, "Don't quit your day job!" Luckily, we knew he was just being a smart aleck and wanted to get a rise out of us.

But, the day I came across this quote, it really resonated with me. It gave me a sense of hope. I mean, everyone's got a daydream, right? Or, if you're like me, you've got several thousand...just ask my husband! So, who's to say you should just give up on it? With hard work, perseverance, faith, trust, and maybe some pixie dust, you can do anything you set your heart on!
