Taking care of me

Things I like to do to "take care of me" this time of year is to take bike rides along the lakefront, treat myself to healthy breakfasts with fresh fruit and to prioritize time for rest every weekend. One of my favorite relaxing and restful things to do on a Saturday morning is to grab some croissants and coffee and have my breakfast in the park on a sunny summer morning. The month of June is definitely one of my favorite months of the year! :)

Doorways, Hallways and Gateways in life

I love this sermon by pastor Charlotte Gambill from Life Church in England. Charlotte shares great wisdom and encouragement in this sermon that will be helpful to anyone who has had a dream that died. This sermon will also be very helpful to anyone who is in a season of change in life right now. Whenever I'm tempted to give up on something I'm fighting for I go back and watch this sermon online to get my hopes back up and find the strength to keep moving forward.

Let's be nicer to ourselves (&others)!

You know that something is changing in society when you actually like a commercial and the message it sends. I love this commercial from Special K and I'm hoping that more brands will take a similar stand in the future. Brands can either choose to continue to add pressure on young women and contribute to something negative or choose to help us love ourselves. What matters more in the end, how much we can sell or how well we took care of each other during this short life?
