SOME OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE QUOTES x 6

My style Personal

“Do not listen with the intent to reply…

…but with the intent to understand.”

“Remember to look up at the stars and not down on your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don’t just give up.”

❤︎

“A candle loses nothing…

…by lighting another candle.”

“Do not chase another human being. Instead, chase your curiosity. Chase your development and goals. Chase your passion. Strive to work for something bigger than yourself, and instead of trying to convince someone that you fit within their world, strive to build your own.”

❤︎

“Don’t try to squeeze into a glass slipper…

…Instead, shatter the glass ceiling.”

“What if you wake up some day, and you’re 65 or 75, and you never got your novel written; or you didn’t go swimming in warm pools and oceans all those years because you had a nice big comfortable tummy; or you were so strung out on people-pleasing that you forgot to have a juicy creative life, of imagination and staring off into space like when you were a kid? It’s going to break your heart. Don’t let that happen.”

SPRING IS COMING FOR US
 1. Kukat on mun mielestä ihan parhaita juttuja kuvata iPhonella. Mun kännykän kuvakirjasto on poikkeuksetta täynnä erilaisia kasveja leikkokukista kaktuksiin, enkä malta olla jakamatta niistä yhtä tai kahta teidän kanssa. Saadaan edes vähän väriä tänne harmaan talven keskelle! Flowers are one of the things I'm constantly taking photos of, usually with my iPhone in hand. The camera roll of my cell is pretty much full of different plants from cut flowers to cacti, and I can't help but share one or two of them with you. It's nice to have some colour in the midst of this grey winter! 2. Tästä sinisestä hetkestä on jo vähän aikaa. Päädyin ...

WHITE FLOWERS
Last Saturday, we had the privilege to celebrate this smart, beautiful girl as she graduated from high school. Their home garden is full of white and pink flowers, and as it is the end of May, the garden was in full bloom. Naturally, we had to take advantage of the wonderful garden, so we snapped  these photos. Lauantaina tämän upean sukulaistyttömme päähän painettiin ylioppilaslakki, jota olimme ylppäreissä mukana juhlistamassa. Tyttöjen kotipuutarhassa kukki valtoimenaan valkeat ja vaaleanpunaiset kukat, emmekä tietysti malttaneet olla nätillä pihalla räpsimättä muutamaa kuvaa. In addition to the recent high-school graduate, you can als ...

REUNION WITH MY MED SCHOOL GIRLFRIENDS
Ruffled up Eilen iltapäivästä oli ihan huikean upea auringonpaiste alkavan viikonlopun kunniaksi. Just sellanen täydellisen raikas syyspäivä, joita rakastan niin paljon. Mä riensin puoli viideksi pedikyyriin, tai oikeastaan varpaankynsien geelilakkaukseen. En ole aiemmin jaksanut juurikaan nähdä vaivaa jalkojen eteen syksyisin, mutta nyt keksin pitää varpaat edustuskelpoisina myös talven yli. Yesterday afternoon we got to enjoy this beautiful golden sunshine to properly kick off the weekend. The air was perfectly crisp, and it was just one of those autumn days that I really love. I had a pedicure, or more precisely gel polish for my toes, s ...
