Today is the Day!

Today is the day!  I'm starting a new job and couldn't be more excited.  Things may be a little quiet on Dreams in HD this week as I'm traveling for work and I'm sure will have an adjustment period as I settle into my new role, but I am so looking forward to see where the next year takes me.  Wish me luck!!

Looking Back

I am in absolute disbelief that today is the last day of 2013.  Every year seems to go by faster and faster, a quiet reminder how important it is to live every day to the fullest yet enjoy the simple moments.  This year has had its fair share of highs and lows, but ultimately the joy and love outweighed the pain and sadness.  My mom was diagnosed with cancer and subsequently kicked cancers butt!  My best friend got married with me by her side as her maid of honor.  My boyfriend and I moved in together.  We fostered a homeless dog who we ended up falling in love with and adopting.  I got a new freelance job which allows me the flexibility to work when and where I want.  I traveled to Italy, made new friends, and revamped my blog.  Next year holds a lot of unknown, but I am confident that the best is yet to come.  Cheers to making 2014 one for the books!

Never Stop Wandering

Sorry for the radio silence as of late, there has been a lot going on these past few weeks in my life.  But things are looking brighter and just make me realize all the more that everyday is a gift.  So this is just a friendly reminder to enjoy the time you have here on this beautiful Earth - never stop wondering and never stop wandering :)

Words to Live By

You know those days when you're just feeling a little down?  Perhaps you're under the weather, stressed about factors that are out of your control, overworked, faced with a difficult decision, or just lacking inspiration.  On those days there are three things that always help me feel more calm and centered: spending some time outside connecting with nature, drinking a hot cup of tea, and reading quotes I find inspirational.  Some of my favorites are below {for more check out here}.

The Helpers

This weekend, I {along with the entire country} have been completely grief stricken by the tragic events that occurred in Newtown, CT.  I found solace in a beautiful quote from Mister Rogers {one of my heros} about trying to see the good in the world in the face of a tragedy.  I hope this can too bring you a little bit of peace during this difficult time.  Please remember to hug your loved ones a little tighter, as we never know how much longer we have in this world.

"When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.' To this day, especially in times of 'disaster,' I remember my mother’s words, and I am always comforted by realizing that there are still so many helpers - so many caring people in this world." - Mister Rogers

Have a fabulous weekend!
