January: Always be a little kinder than necessary


Let’s face it, life is rough for everyone. We all have good days and bad days, happy days and sad days, Mondays and Fridays, but not matter what kind of day we are having or what day of the week it is we can make someone days. We can make a difference. A smile, a wave or holding the door open doesn’t cost us anything. So be good to one another! Be kind.

Yesterday the beloved prophet of my church passed away. He was the epitome of kindness, charity and love. One of my life goals is to be more like him. I’m very far away but hopefully little by little I will be able to be more like him and more like Christ.

360 months ( Life lessons from my 30th trip around the sun #21-30)

21.  Focus on the things you can control. Your thoughts and actions, your attitude and behavior, your life. Don't let the opinions or actions of others affect you. 22. Show up. Participate, be involved. 23. Know when to lead and when to follow. Be humble. Be a good sport. 24. Fake it til you make it. We are all just winging it. 25. Just do it. Start. Now. Make things happen. 26. Be the most positive person you know. The world is full of negativity, try your best to rise above. 27. You are enough. You have enough, you are ENOUGH. 28. Work hard. Hustle. Hard work beat talent when talent doesn't work hard. 29. It's not between you and them. Don't let them get you down. 30. Be a good person. No matter what.

Year 30 (30 life lessons for in 30th year)

30 years; 3 decades; 360 months; 10950 days This is a first of a series of posts I will do about 30 things everyone should know before they turn 30. Remember that episode of Friends when they turn 30 and Joey freaks out? hahaha That was me the past 2-3 years. I basically missed 28 because I was afraid to turn 29...lol 2018 brought many great experiences and adventures. In August, I turned 30 years old, went to clinic for school, worked a little and went to dinner with friends. Just a regular day in "the life of vy." Nothing magical happened, I looked, felt and was essentially the same.   Growing up I thought by age 30 I would have a husband, kids, home, maybe a dog, a career I loved, etc. Society feels the same way and by 30 there are things I "should" have accomplished or should have checked off a made up list. Unbeknownst to the young me the 30 year old me is back in school while working full time and still single with no kids and no pets. As my mom ...
