All Your Choklit Are Belong To Me
An inspirational quote about our inner strength

I love this quote by Marianne Williamson found in an article by Gail Blanke from the September 2007 issue of Real Simple.

“Our deepest fear is not that we’re inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond all measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually who are you not to be? You are a child of God.

Your playing small doesn’t serve the world.”

Yo Gabba Gabba!


I saw a preview clip for Nick Jr’s Yo Gabba Gabba! on E! last month and instantly fell for the pretty, colourful sets. I really don’t know why some people feel so strongly against the show, but it does feel kinda trippy - and I like it!*

*I don’t have kids and count the teletubbies as one of my fav kiddy shows… so feel free to judge me. heh.

Happy Days
Things To Be Thankful For

Today is another wonderful day! The weather is perfect (it’s raining- and I simply love it!) and I have the company of a talkative, purring cat on my desk. Everyday is just so much more beautiful now that I’ve chosen to live life with fierce optimism! Yay for me!

Focusing on the things I’m grateful for makes me a happier person. It helps that I have been keeping a list of “Things I’m Thankful For” in my notebook so that I can literally count my blessings everyday. I’m not saying that having this list will help everyone, but it’s definitely worth a try!

:)
