When life knocks you down, On days when it feels as if no one's around, It's not over, It's not done. Don't let the moon block your sun. Whatever it may be, rise up and lay it down. Rest easy and know. There's something in the works behind every frown. Choose to believe in a future you can't yet see. Real joy is found in the in-between. Count your blessings until there's no place you'd rather be. 😊 Sincerely, Abbs 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕 #thesunshinewithin ☀️ #poetry (p.s. I have no idea where this came from... I've never really been a poet... Haha. But I genuinely hope you liked/understood it. Just some of my random words of encouragement from the heart! ☺️😘) (at Words Of Encouragement)

To the one who created the universe : • • • You created flowers to remind us that even the most beautiful thing on earth can perish with time. It is the intangibles that are unperishable and everlasting. • • • • • #Godbreatheword#roses#flowers#tangible#bible#wordoftruth#theeverlasting#yearofjubilee#thelordismyshepherd #sabbath #thatsdarling#darlingmovement#livethelittlethings#nothingisordinary#thehappynow#visualsoflife#petitejoy#thesunshinewithin#makeitblissful#abmlifeiscolourful#theprettypursuit

{ radiate 🙂 joy } // Smile at a stranger today. Smile just b.c you can. Make a point to look at the people you pass in the parking lot, the grocery store, the mall, etc. The people you encounter on a daily basis. The strangers. Look at them directly in the eyes & SMILE. Maybe even start up a casual convo. This may seem like such a simple act of kindness, but every little gesture adds up. You have no idea much it could matter to someone. How much it does matter. Some people are so lonely. So torn up inside. It breaks my heart to think they might've gone all day without a single acknowledgement of their existence. Besides the cashier. Or co-worker asking for information at work. I just want them to feel seen by someone who cares. I may not know them - or their story - but that doesn't mean I can't make a difference. Maybe brighten their day a little. Maybe not. Sometimes, (especially in big, fast-paced cities...) you'll get looked at you like you're cray cray. Just for smiling! Like you're doing something wrong. That's okay. These might be the people who need it the most. "It's better to be the one who smiled than the won't who didn't smile back." Whether reciprocated or not, kindness is contagious. Genuine face-to-face interactions cure a lonely soul. Look up. Reach out. Give the world everything you've got. Smile at a stranger. It may be the only ray of sunshine they've seen all day. Week. Month. YEAR. You better believe it matters. #payitforward #thesunshinewithin

take time to |r e s t| 😴💕 // I have to admit. This isn't something I'm very good at. When I'm not at work, I've always got something on my mind I want to accomplish, friends I want to see, activity I want to do, etc. — Usually just out of my pure excitement for life (at least lately!) — But prob also due to the pressure I put on myself... If we're honest. So it's not only my wacko schedule, but a lot of my own doing too! I woke up today (on my day off!) wanting to accomplish so many things I've not had time to do! So many activities!! Lol. But it was pouring down rain & I opened my email to find some of the plans I had for today were cancelled. *THANK GOD* I secretly thought to myself. I just felt so comfy & nodded back asleep to the sound of the heavy wind + rain against my window. I woke back up in the late, LATE afternoon. 😂 But finally I didn't feel guilty. I'm honestly kinda proud. I used to do this all the time in college & never cared, but as I got older I felt like I was 'wasting away my day' or something. I literally lounged all day & feel so much more at peace now. This is exactly what I needed! So give yourself a break. All this sh*t we think we should be doing isn't always what we need. Be still & rest! 😘 #thesunshinewithin #rainyday (📸: @thepinkdiary)

I'm |a l i v e| & well. 💛 *sound on* 🎶 // Just messing around with my @olloclip today! Literally shot this with nothing but my phone, adorable @sugarboodesigns makeup bag (given to me as a bday present from my bestie @morganemccarthy 😍) & the outdoors. Edited it on my phone with iMovie. Sorry Insta wouldn't let me resize it to fit the entire thing. If you're having trouble reading what the words on my bag say... Kiss your life. Accept it, just as it is. Today. Now. So that those moments of happiness you're waiting for don't pass you by. Would you like to see more of these?! Please let me know! I had so much fun making this today!! P.s. 'Ask Abbs' is still in the making too (look a few posts back😉) love y'alllllll 💕 #visittybee #visitsavannah #thesunshinewithin ☀️ (at Tybee Island, Georgia)

"Happiness held is the seed; happiness shared is the flower." ✨🌸 I’ve been thinking a lot about growth lately. In regards to joy. I may not know your life story or current situation, but I do know a lot of people my age (& all walks of life) struggle to find ‘joy in the journey.’ To see the bigger picture in the never ending pile of to-do’s & should-be-doing-but-I’m-not lists...

| BE GRATEFUL TODAY | ☀💕 ⬇️ Real life isn’t always going to be perfect or go our way, but the recurring acknowledgement of what is working in our lives can help us not only to survive but surmount our difficulties. -Sarah Ban Breathnach ✨//// We often take for granted the very things that most deserve our gratitude. -Cynthia Ozick • I don't know about you, but I'm definitely guilty of forgetting this sometimes. I live at the beach and drive by this beautiful scenery every single day into the city/ to&from work. Growing up, I used to say if I was ever lucky enough to live on the coast I would never take advantage of it. I thought life would be perfect and nothing else would matter. Life is pretty dang good, but I do still get worked up about silly things from time to time just like you. I don't go to the beach everyday like I thought I would. And sometimes I focus a little TOO much on my goals, and forget to just LIVE. But every time I take a step back and chill, I realize how #blessed I really am. So I think this is a good thing to keep in mind: .• No matter where you live.... 'REAL' life is happening now. It's always here. Let's aim to live today. Not just for the weekend, success, or the future. And be thankful for the wonderful people + blessings God has gifted us. Look at ALL things from a perspective of light. Ordinary days are special, too! 😊❤️ #thesunshinewithin #gratitude #grateful #visittybee (at Tybee Island, Georgia)
