Find the Blessings in Bad Days

I found myself having a bad day yesterday, so naturally I went to one of my "thinking spots". I am learning that if you can count your blessings when you're having a bad day, the day won't seem so bad. I'm truly thankful to love in a place with such a beautiful view, and I am thankful for my many thinking spots around town. 
To me this picture taken represents hope, bravery, and endurance. This picture will also be a lasting reminder of the day I learned to make my bad days into good days.

Individuality

Let your BEST TRAIT be individuality. My favorite people have always been the type who are not afraid to march at the beat of their own drum, in todays society we find a lot of molds of the same type of person. I think everyone goes through a phase of doing what the "cool crowd does", or wearing what the "cool crowd" is wearing. My favorite example is what I like to call my vain stage, in middle school I wouldn't wear anything that wasn't abercrombie or hollister but how unfortunate is that, I wore overpriced things that I didn't like for the right reasons. To me my vain stages were only a testimony of my insecurity, and I refuse to live my life as a shadow. Sadly some people get into a routine of the vain stage and can't find their way out of the trap, but I can't think of a bigger shame because we are all unique and we all have something to offer if we could just realize how valuable we truly are. So I dare you to let your BEST TRAIT to be individuality.
To me, this picture is a statement of embracing qualities, I loved seeing this vandalism in Knoxville (not a supporter of vandalism) because it shows flaw and it shows individuality.
as always thanks for reading xoxo
