Lately, I’ve gotten into the habit of leaving myself inspirational notes on my night table. Just a little something reminding me to smile, be positive, and to aspire for great things that day. I love beginning the day with happy thoughts.
I’m not sure why I hadn’t started this practice until now, after all I have spent years dropping little notes into my son’s lunchbox and backpack. It’s always so wonderful to get a sweet note in return. Leaving inspirational notes for others is a lovey and yet simple thing to do, and something I plan to continue. I think I’ll start dropping little notes of inspiration around town, in places where I shop and visit. Wouldn’t it be nice to find a random note like that?
On the topic of starting the day with something positive…
A simple and delicious breakfast of whole wheat toast, Nutella, and fruit is certainly something to smile about. Wouldn’t you say?
Spread the happy.
My nieces are always happy to start the day or snack on Nutella toast. We spread on a nice layer of creamy Nutella and then top it with whatever fresh fruit we can find in the crisper.
It’s good stuff.
The toast almost looks like a work of art. It’s funny to see the care that goes into placing each piece of fruit onto the toast, only to be gobbled up moments later.
Are you feeling happy yet?
