“Be bold. Be brave. Be courageous”

Joshua 1:9

Happy Friday!! The number of dance parties I had by myself in my apartment this week might be a world record. Can’t stop, won’t stop dancing. It doesn’t matter what song it is, I just want to dance. Even sitting in the subway I was tap dancing and snapping my fingers…. and not a single person gave me money for being a subway performer, rude. Although I am always in the mood to dance, this week I just got this feeling in my body so I dance, dance, dance, dance.

When we are little we are taught that bragging is not appropriate. It’s a sign of snobbery and narcissism. To talk about how many Chanel bags you have, how many pushups you can do, or how much money you make, I agree, is not wanted. But there are some forms of bragging I do encourage:  celebrating yourself and celebrating your friends. Right now we are living in a society of self love, self promotion, filtered pictures, and an open platform to speak your mind. I am very much in the forefront of self love and self care. It’s vital to your health and well-being. But I think we need to go beyond self love and show love of others by celebrating your friends accomplishments.

“Speak what you seek until you see what you said”

Happy Friday!! What a busy, fun week it was! Last weekend I went home to Ohio to celebrate my niece’s 1st birthday. The majority of my family was there and a few of my sister and brother-in-law’s friends. It was a nice party! My niece had cake for the first time and ended up running around screaming; I laughed, my sister recorded it on her phone, my mom was shushing her to calm down, and my dad jokingly screamed back at her. Good times. Besides the celebration I went to see The Greatest Showman with my sister and brother-in-law– SO GOOD!! Every syncopated detail was perfect, the dancing and music was fantastic, it was all truly amazing! I now have the soundtrack on repeat. It was also nice to see Zac Efron sing and dance without being the only one over 20 with out a kid in the theater…. #highschoolmusicalforever.

“Become more aware of what’s really worth your energy”

Happy Friday!! This week…. my goodness it was the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. Tuesday I was feeling as if everything I did I was failing at. I talked about during Wednesday post. Luckily I am feeling so much better– thank you for the sweet messages. Like I said in my post, it was nothing that a good night’s sleep couldn’t cure.
