Hello friends! I have been gone a while due to a lack of inspiration, and I have hated being absent. But, alas, I have found and remembered the reason I love blogging. So, cheers to Friday, and cheers to refounded inspiration…

Life is a wonderful gift, and there are things in this life which I believe are worth spending the extra time and money for.

-flowers. there is nothing quite like a beautiful flower. a home filled with flowers is a happy home.

-care for yourself. get a massage, touch your toes, drink water straight from a coconut, feel your legs and lungs burn while running, spend money on a thick body creme. i think these things are so important. we have this one body, and it’s amazing how it runs and works when you take the extra mile to care for it.

-do something you love. draw, design, learn, vacation, inspire. taking time for yourself leads to longterm happiness. and i am a firm believer that your happiness is #1. it doesn’t matter if it is designing the Ranakpur Temple or sitting on your couch and watching Orange Is The New Black. we put limits on what we tell ourselves are “better” activities than others, but if you are happy, there is no “better or worse”, it all stems from a desire of love and happiness.

-listen to music, dance, repeat. i truly believe that in music we find magic. find what beat gets you movin’, and let that be your anthem. our bodies naturally feel a beat, our bodies also naturally want to move…dance. “no matter what, nobody can take away the dances you’ve already had.”

Until next time,

Claire
