Another Monday and another short week for me! How was your weekend? Technically, today is still part of my long weekend, so I am thrilled! Of course, being off from work for a few days means tomorrow will be crazy and probably a little stressful. The long weekend was supposed to be more than what it was, but at least I had some time to relax and unwind. Today is “supposed” to have something exciting happen, but I will keep you updated on that.

It is important to start each week with a positive and motivated mind, which I do know can be difficult. The world is a crazy place and that can cause too much anxiety. I am hoping the quote that I am sharing with providing you with a sense of motivation! With all the negativity that we see happening in the world, we need to try holding onto what matters to us. We need to be willing to learn and not ignore things that we do not understand. Other people may think in a different way than we do, but those are the people we can learn the most from!

Is there anything you are looking forward to or dreading this week? Disappointments are difficult and emotionally draining, but we all experience them. How do you handle disappointments? I feel like when we have high expectations for people, we are only setting ourselves up for pain. Honestly, most of the time I have low expectations for people because I am trying to protect my emotions. However, for people that are close to me, I still tend to have higher expectations. I guess I cannot blame anyone but myself when I get sad because I was let down by someone.

Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope your week starts well and only gets better with each day. Remember to try to not allow yourself to get overly stressed about the things you have no control over because you will only be hurting yourself. I am looking forward to reading your comments and I will respond as quickly as I can. Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Always, Alyssa
