Intro Post


I've started this blog for a few reasons.  

1) My friend Hannah started a blog "H.M.Pittman" and encouraged me to do the same.  She has assured me I have lots of good things to say and that people on the internet will read those things.

2) My life feels kind of messy right now and I want to start enjoying it more.  I tend to be a pessimistic individual and while I'm not sure if I can change that I'd like to try!  I'm hoping that maintaining this blog will help me to keep my heart sweet and to be an all around better me :-)

3) I firmly believe in positive reinforcement.  I am much more motivated to eat healthy food and exercise, for example, when I see and think about those things being fun instead of a burden.  I'm much better at sticking to my vegetarian diet when I look at images of happy beautiful animals living on a farm sanctuary than I am when I see pictures of animals suffering (it just makes me feel sad and helpless, not motivated).  I recognize that this works for me so I'm hoping this blog will allow me to create a little environment of happy things that make me want to live a beautiful life every day! 

4) I really enjoy writing.  I've started many blogs in the past and never stuck with them because I felt I didn't know what  to talk about, or, I worried myself silly wondering what others would think of me when they read my posts.  No more!  I want to simply enjoy this process for what it is and if some other people read  my blog that will be even sweeter <3

There is no particular theme to this blog, the only rule is that each post be about doing or thinking about something in an extra beautiful way.
