Preppy Desktop, iPad, iPhone, FB Wallpaper

It's definitely time for a new wallpaper :-)

Soccer Mom and Sporty Sister both just finished reading this book about Zen. As a result, we're all a bit crazy about the Universe right now. It's "the Universe this" and "the Universe that" and a whole lot of "The Universe is great" around here!

I kept rolling my eyes and teasingly exclaiming how much I looooooooved the Universe. And then I realized the book is probably onto something. (I haven't actually read the book... yet. It's next on my list.) Just changing your attitude, or at least your perspective, can really make for a happier day!

Whenever I find myself annoyed with a situation (happens way more frequently than I care to admit), I've been trying to reexamine what's really going on. I've also been finding myself longing for things to be better, or at least different. It's honestly quite draining.

Now, I'm just going with the idea that "every day is a great day." No matter what. (Things could seriously be worse.) This is the BEST possible day that I could live.

I plan on absolutely plastering this phrase everywhere!

  5. I love this! I have a calendar on my desk with the quote "write it on your heart that every day is the best day of the year". Sometimes it is easy to get overwhelmed but a positive attitude can make any day better.

  17. Always a good thing to remember. Even if a day isn't necessarily the best, because sometimes those happen, I find it can always be made just a little bit better by having a positive attitude.
