Practice the pause.
Pause before judging. Pause before assuming.
Pause before accusing.
Pause whenever you’re about to react harshly

This girl had me at the bacon necklace! I absolutely adore everything about Stephanie. She’s Canadian, exceptionally creative, and living her life her way. For years, I’ve been dreaming about renovating a vintage Airstream. I think she’s the spark I needed to set the idea ablaze! I just don’t know where the hell I’m going to put the damn thing! Bahahaha!

Pachelbel Canon reduces my stress…not sure about the research indicating that the Marconi Union’s Weightless below has a greater impact (listening to “Weightless” resulted in a striking 65% reduction in participants’ overall anxiety, and a 35% reduction in their usual physiological resting rates via SwissMiss)…I want to read the paper!

I’m with you. So with you on this one. Left it like a crime scene. I climb mountains now.
