Just a quick fly-by post to wish anyone reading (and I see that you are, my recent visitors from Bosnia, Italy and Brazil...please do say hello) a Happy Aloha Friday!
Your mission for this weekend - should you choose to accept - is to get out and do something different! If you have a normal Saturday/Sunday routine, postpone it, put it on hold, do-what-you-have-to-do and just get out and DO SOMETHING. Be spontaneous! The laundry will always be there, the house will always need picking-up, the bed will always need to be made. Live a little. Get out in nature, breathe some fresh air into your lungs! Run. Laugh. Play with your kids at the park. Buy those shoes you've been coveting. Set-up "camp" at night in the living room and fall asleep eating popcorn and watching movies - nevermind how old you are (we don't). Whatever! Just challenge yourself to do something DIFFERENT.
Seize the day. Enjoy the moment. Life is too short. Get out there and LIVE.
And report back here on Monday to share the deets of your weekend. Pretty-please-with-sugar-on-top. :)
I'm such a huge grump this morning and your post snapped me right out of it. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteLife is obviously too routine because I'm trying hard to figure out "something different" that I can do. That's crazy no?
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be able to recreate the series of clicks that lead me to your blog if I tried, however I'm glad I stumbled upon it...I am a Chicago girl, I've been to Maui 3 times in the past five years, and I feel like I left my heart there. Each time I went it was harder to come back. My husband and I dream of uprooting and living there- maybe someday! Anyway, glad I can get a little fix of aloha through your blog! :)
ReplyDeleteIs it me from Italy??
ReplyDeletetoo bad I only read your post today, so I'm out of the competition. Will try next weekend though!

Lisa: :) Hope you guys had a good weekend, too! xoxo.
ReplyDeleteSusan: Definitely not crazy. It's so easy to get caught up in responsibilities, obligations...life. It's all good, as long as we remember to step back every now and then and just BE, you know?
Daniele: Hey there! Thanks so much for the visit and for following along; new friends are always welcome. Aaah, so you've fallen under the Maui spell! It really is such a beautiful place. When is your next trip to the islands? Sending you aloha! :)
Lav: Oh it's definitely not a competition, just sending out some feel-good vibes to my readership. :) Thank you for commenting...it's always nice to 'meet' new people. Hope you have a great week!
