It happens to the best of us. We get wrapped up in our daily madness, our relationships, and realize that we're letting time fly by. Before our relationships, before our houses, and our kids, there was that group of friends you called your best friends. Your girlfriends. Your soulmates. They came over on Friday nights ...
Being unsettled
Imagine, you're loving your job, you have a cozy home, and a support network of friends and family. You get your workout in when you can, and you're enjoying life. It's the perfect balance. And then one day one of those things comes loose from its hinges. You feel the sense of being rattled. Your ...
Just a little space
Being a city dweller, space is a limited but hot commodity. A balcony, a little green patch (that's a yard right?), or dare I say, a roofdeck is everything. It's an escape...an escape from the world - the daily grind - a moment to just let it all melt away. Does that mean turning to suburbia ...
Being in the moment
Have you ever been out with someone, and started planning the next time you were hanging out? Or thinking about the next meal you'll have later that day? Or what you're doing later that day or weekend? Raise your hand if you're guilty like me. It's nice to think ahead and explore the fun possibilities of ...
A moment of silence
With the holidays, there can be a lot of madness. Family cooking, celebrating, travel, and so much more. It's the time of year when it's not about you. It's about the ones we love and being a little more selfless. But, take a minute. Take a moment of silence. For you. We all need a moment to ...
Escaping out of Digital
Having seen Saved by the Bell still airing reruns on TV over the weekend, I couldn't help but think back to what it was like before everyone having a smartphone and "living online." Long gone feel the days of running around looking for a payphone and waiting for a phone call. Checking our answering machines, and ...
Keep Those You Love Close
Written by contributing blogger, Sonia Sahota. I recently found myself reminiscing on the past few years that have flown by in a blink of an eye. I caught myself thinking about all the beautiful friendships I have made, the friends I have lost along the way, and family that I have grown close to. Time flies ...
Make Travel a Priority
Travel Like it's 1999. Did that make sense? No? Well travel anyway. Whether it's a staycation, a weekend getaway, or a new adventure across the world, take the time to make some extra memories. Why? A trip can rejuvenate you. Give you new perspective on your life. And perhaps bring you back refreshed and ready to tackle your goals and ...
Appreciate what you have
With the holidays just behind us, and the fresh new year, we have to take time to think. Think through what we have, that we are lucky to be where we are, and appreciate how much more we have than so many others. The things to be thankful for: Health - Even if we aren't perfectly healthy. ...
Embrace the Seasons
It's easy to say: I hate the cold. Winter sucks. I want summer. I've done it. You've done it. It's normal to feel a little frustrated - and definitely after - 20 feet of snow (hello, Boston last year). But instead of grumbling and being a bit of a winter grinch as I've seen many be (and I'm sure ...
