discoveries- I think so!

So I wanted to share some fun things I've discovered lately.

1- StumbleUpon, it actually makes internet time worth while. I've read so many interesting articles and seen so many beautiful things! I think if you haven't done it yet you should get on it.

2- I've been working on my health lately (it's something very important to me- We have these amazing bodies that take care of us, it's only right to do the same thing back) I came across this blog called The Style Diet. I loved the idea and think I'll be creating my own to share what I believe and love about taking care of my body to help others feel the same way about themselves.

3- Using natural sunlight DOES help with your biological clock in getting enough rest. I've cracked my window open to help me wake in the morning and love it! Though I was not born a morning person I'm determined to make more use with that time!

4- Mango salsa is much better than regular salsa unless it's Uncle John's homemade stuff.

5- Shower crayola crayons make the world a much better place. Draw in your tub the next time you shower.

6- Sitting and complaining or going down on yourself is a waste of time. Focus on your strengths and remember no one else is YOU! That alone makes YOU the most beautiful person out there.

7
- Life is too short to not make friends with everyone. Even if they don't remember you the next day, saying hi to someone as you walk down the street or stroll in the grocery store is the best thing you can do for yourself.

8- Peanuts with shells are messy.

9- Greek yogurt now outdoes any other yogurt out there.

10- I've got a beautiful life. There are shoes on my feet, carpet in my house, and running water at my tap. I am able to pursue an education and have a job. I have a loving family and home. I have wonderful memories and opportunities to make even more. And that makes me very grateful.
