Just Be.

Hey Gang!

Not necessarily marketing-related news or an internship update but I wanted to share a Healthy Reflection with you that I receive via email from a site called SparkPeople.com. The passage totally captures my state of mind right now as I took the last final of my undergraduate college career yesterday. I know there will be many tests ahead as I enter my career but it’s the most amazing feeling to accomplish one major chapter of my life. Hopefully, the passage inspires you.
It reads:

Don’t put off living the life you want

There is no lesson for today. You have permission to stop thinking for a moment and just enjoy yourself. Stop looking at your computer right now and go look at the world. Rediscover the natural wonders that you walk past every day. How can there possibly be that many shades of green? Let your mind be grateful for a break. Don’t think, don’t strain. Let the memories of loved ones remind you of your favorite times. Close your eyes and try to smell the sunshine. Listen to your heart beat in your ears. If it’s raining, smile at the thought of the flowers that will soon follow. If you’re surrounded by buildings, celebrate the creative genius of human beings. See the hope, the alarm, the love, the grief in faces that stream by. Thank whomever you’d like to thank for the chance to even be here. For a moment today, don’t worry about being better. Just be.
