Just because...

Today I received a beautiful bouquet of roses from my wonderful boyfriend just because he didn't want a day to go by where he didn't make me happy. <3

Thank you for being so sweet! I'm a very lucky girl! :)

How it began...

Today was the most beautiful October day you could imagine. The sun was shining & it was actually warm enough to put on my blades... so away I went. I did my normal route from my place down through Steveston, to Garry Point, along the dike to 3 road and back! I had my ipod on and for some reason today, even the sad songs couldn't get me down. The people I passed today all seemed so content and smiled as I passed them. It happened so many times I started counting. By the time I got home I had exchanged smiles with 18 random strangers.

Sometimes it's the little things in life that really count and I'm starting to realize that. I've been reading a lot lately and have been really inspired. So inspired, in fact, that I want to share it with you. So I started a blog. For gratitude, inspiration, and enlightenment.

Why then, I wonder, do I feel stupid writing this blog? I'd probably feel more comfortable blogging if I was going off in a rant about something. Actually, I'm pretty sure I would. It's sad that as a society we approve more of complaints and rants than praises and gratitude. There is not enough positivity in this world. So this blog will be my [small] part.
