All Good Things

Compiling stylishly handsome finds for voracious lovers of the good and pretty.

It’s been a unique year.I’ve learned so much about myself this past year than I’ve ever learned before.It seems as if everything is scaringly clear now.Is this called maturity, aging, becoming a woman and leaving the girl behind?Such powerful emotions can be daring but they entitle a sense of security that is hard to describe.I’ve discovered that feelings can change, even the most relevant ones.That I’m a country girl at heart: I absolutely love the spiritual warmth a peaceful surrounding can bring to your heart. I guess I’ve become to realize that only the simplest things can bring true joy and happiness. Laying on the most comfortable couch reading your favorite book covered by the softest blanket with my dogs beside me knowing that they trust me.Gorgeous flowers, candles and lamps.Now that I’m living in England I’ve learned to enjoy winter and rainy sundays.Generous breakfasts, my essential meal of the day.A nice and fulfilling movie, popcorn in hand.The value of friendship and family.Good health, financial stability. Getting home after a long day at work knowing that is your favorite place in the world.A beautiful perfume that makes you feel feminine and totally gorgeous.A complete different perception on sex and love, overall relationships.Nothing is set in stone, for good or for bad.Understanding that is never too late, even if sometimes it does feel that you run out of time.Life has surprised me in the most amazing ways possible and I only do hope this is just the beginning of this wonderful journey.

WHEN THE SEA IS ROUGH, MEND YOUR SAILSSometimes nothing seems to be working. You’re in a relationship desert, you’re between jobs or trying to get projects off the ground but nobody is returning your calls. Sometimes life is just like that. If you seem to be making the right moves but the world isn’t responding, it may be time to take the desperation out of your voice and respond to the deeper rhythm of events. To everything there is a season. Gardeners know it. Fishermen know it. If you look closely to your own life you can see it too. The rhythm changes just as nature does.Sometimes things flourish, sometimes life feels as though it’s gone into slow motion, even stopped. Assuming you’re not a fisherman, there are plenty of things you can do during these quiet times. There may be lessons to be learned, maps may need to be redrawn.  As spring follows winter, times of inactivity are followed by times where your feet don’t touch the ground. During quiet times you need to turn your energy inward and do your growing underground, so that when change comes, as it always does, you will be ready to respond and the next time the signs of winter come round you can recognize and greet them without fear.

The Mind vs The Heart

The way I see it, there are two kinds of people—those who follow the heart, and those who follow the mind—i.e, the risk takers and those who play it safe. There is nothing wrong with either, by the way. The way you live your life makes you who you are, and as long as you leave a footprint you feel is worth leaving, then that is more than great.

I myself, as you can probably already tell, am a dreamer. I live ruled by the heart, utterly and completely. Blindly optimistic—so much that I firmly things often work in my favor. Remember? The energy you give out to the universe is the energy that you receive back. When you are positive, and you truly believe—you will receive. When you are negative, and you lack faith, you will only continue to see the glass as half empty, and you will see zero returns. I believe the universe is very giving as long as you believe with all of your heart. I am not bound by rules, society, or what people think. Some might find this to be wreckless, but let me tell you this: every time I have deviated from society’s expectations, something magical has happened. I tell people have been lucky all my life, but in all truth, I know that I’ve been responsible for the magic that I’ve created in my life. Though my life is nowhere near perfect, I think it is so important to dream and live by the heart. This is who I am. No apologies, no explanations. Even if consequences are inevitable—if I am gone tomorrow, I can at least say I lived for today.
