I felt inspired this week. Specifically from this post on Sarah's blog, and this post on Jess' blog. The truth is, reality isn't always as perfect as the blog world makes it seem. And not that this week was tough for me or anything, but sometimes it is easy to lose track of your vision. These posts were a simple reminder to take a step back, breathe, find your strength, be confident, and trust that what you're doing is worth it. A great way to step into the weekend, yes?
I have absolutely no plans this weekend, and words can describe how happy this makes me feel. The weather in Chicago has been so lovely, I am hoping it continues. What are you up to?

ReplyDeletethat quote was the push i needed to sign up for improv classes, which scares the dickens out of me. i'm hoping against hope that i don't have to go in to work this weekend. the weather in NYC has been awesome too and i'd LOVE for it to stay that way!
ReplyDeleteA good quote to have around for the weeks that are bad. Glad to see you're feeling re-focused and refreshed after reading those posts. It's always good when our community can help each other get back on track. Hope your weekend is great! xo

ReplyDeletejust discovered your blog this week and have enjoyed it so. all of you everygirl ladies have such inspiring things to say! i have been home sick all week with my little one, but leave thursday for chicago. i hope that the weather stays nice, although it doesn't matter much to me. a girls weekend away from responsibilities will be a dream either way!
ReplyDeleteLiz this is fantastic! I hope you enjoy your weekend of nothing, mine's the same way and I cannot wait!
