Sunshine is Delicious

"Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather."
-John Ruskin

This quote may be true, but with all the cold weather, I am absolutely craving to be in any of these images! I can't wait to feel the sun and sand on the beach :)

Finding Inspiration In The Details

Today I am getting inspiration from this Maryland home. I hope you do too!


I always love a grouping of pictures on the wall like this.






I love this little side room/office that is adjacent to the dining room. Looks like some vintage finds!




I am really into white furniture now,  like that couch!


Ruffles ♥

I think this bedroom is just beautiful!




Love that mirror!

Beauty



"Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson




Be beautiful on the inside, and it will shine on the outside.


Put your best foot forward and make the best out of the situations that come your way.



Face your fears...life is too short not to.



Walk with confidence, knowing you are here for a purpose.



Know that you are beautiful.



Notice the beauty in the small details.

Attitude

"The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than success, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude... I am convinced that life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes."
-Charles Swindoll







No matter how we choose to show our attitude today, whether bold or subtle, may we have an attitude that makes life easier for ourselves and for those around us.
