::Happiness is Your Best Medicine::

What is it that makes the New Year the time to make resolutions and better ourselves? Were we really that bad the year before? As I have made the resolution to physically challenge my body to its greatest, I have decided I need to focus on the internal also. I am seeking to pursue happiness in all its wonderous forms. In a more serious way though. Just think about the times that you felt truly happy. Where were you? Who were you with? What were you doing? How did you feel afterwards?  I am happiest when I am on the beach usually in the waves or watching a sunset, accomplish something challenging, being in love, giving and receiving great advice or after leaving the gym. Life is too short and we owe it to ourselves to seek pure happiness on a daily basis. Taking out the bad, maintaining a healthy blood pressure and remedying our pasts mistakes. We can all contribute to universal happiness if we try.

A Voice Within

Southern California has been experiencing some crazy cold weather, but thank God the rain has stopped for now because that was becoming a little crazy. I will repeat myself when I mention that I absolutely hate the cold weather. It makes me lazy and I despise laziness and the people that come with it. I love to be outside, by the beach, taking a walk, playing in the park, and most of all SWEAT. I love to sweat. Sweating means your producing energy and not inside playing video games or watching countless episodes of Jersey Shore or Real Housewives (which I am guilty of when its rainy out) but most the time I love being outdoors. Even if it is alone and I am learning a lot about being alone these days. Although I tend to avoid it by hanging out with my boyfriend or friends as much as possible, but sometimes it is rewarding to be alone. Going to the grocery store, going to the gym, yoga class, eating dinner, going to bed and waking up to the sound of your own voice and your own thoughts. If you cant support yourself alone, are you capable of supporting someone else?
