Wandering

Hey,

J.R.R. Tolkien once wrote, "Not all who wander are lost."  You'll figure things out.

You are enough.

I've officially been doing this project for a month now!  I'm probably going to take a break from posting these every weekday and just post as needed.  I do think it has helped me work on some issues, and I hope that it may have helped anyone who's been reading along the way. 

Attitude

Hey,

You did a really good job today not losing your cool when others were displaying bad attitudes.  Let it roll off your back, and continue to try to be a positive presence.

You are enough.

Hope

Hey,

Stay hopeful.  

You are enough.

Expectations

Hey,

The best way to avoid disappointment is to lower your expectations.  This article sums you up pretty perfectly right now.  Happiness is achievable--simply adjust your assumptions.  You may not be special, but you ARE unique.  And ...

...you are enough.

Timid

Hey,

Aren't you so glad you're not as shy as you once were? 

You are enough.

Focus

Hey,

You're head has been in the clouds lately.  There's nothing wrong with daydreaming--just don't let it pull focus from the tasks at hand.

You are enough.

Growth

Hey,

Remember that there is always room for improvement.  Don't strive for perfection; instead, open your mind to the possibilities for change.

You are enough.  

Introversion

Hey,

It's perfectly acceptable to need some time to yourself every now and then.

You are enough. 

Friendship

Hey,

You have a few really awesome friends.  Nurture those relationships, and don't let them fall by the wayside.

You are enough.

Willpower

Hey,

Getting back on the "dieting" wagon is difficult, but you're trying--that counts for something! You can do it!

You are enough.

Tenacious

Hey,

You're stronger than you think.

You are enough.

Jealousy

Hey,

I know it's so, so easy to look at those around you and be jealous of their successes.  But, you have to remember that you are meant for something great.  It will all be revealed to you in time.

You are enough.

Falling for Fall

The internet at my apartment is out at the moment, so I'm blogging from my office.  Hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend!  I visited my parents and friends in Hattiesburg, and despite almost having a heart attack after losing my keys (I later found them--thanks to a good samaritan), it was a lovely weekend.  You know when you're feeling kind of down, and you see good friends and have the kind of conversations and those laugh-til-you-cry moments that just feed your soul?  That was my weekend.  I'm coming back after the holiday feeling somewhat refreshed and renewed.  I also went shopping with my mother, and we got clothes for the fall, even though it's still hot and miserable outside.  I'm just ready for that crisp feeling in the air.  Got a bunch of fall candles at Bath & Body Works, too (2 for $22 right now!), so I'm just going to start early. 

And hey, guess what?  We are enough. :)

Perfect

Hey,

Forgot to post yesterday!  Don't sweat the small stuff.  Nobody is perfect, but...

you are enough.

Faith

Hey,

Spoiler alert: It's all going to be okay.

You are enough.

Bravery

Hey,

Have the guts to go after what you want in life.

You are enough.

Patience

Hey,

You were in such a bad mood today, you really probably could have strangled someone.  Luckily, you avoided possible jail time by practicing that little virtue called patience.  Proud of you.

You are enough.

Awareness

Hey,

Someone was a bit of a jerk to you today. At first, you were mad because he doesn't know you or anything about you.  Who was he to make a snap judgment about you?  But, then you realized that you don't know him or anything about him either.  Be glad that you have the awareness to recognize that everyone has a back story that makes them the way they are.

You are enough. 

Stress

Hey,

I know today was slightly stressful, but you handled it as best as you could.  Tomorrow's another day, and it will be better.

You are enough.

Complimented

Hey,

Someone paid you a huge compliment today.  Didn't that feel awesome?? :)

You are enough.
