Act like a kid. It might do you some good.

I think we should all make more of an effort to embrace our inner child.

As we grew we were all taught to follow rules and try and "fit in".

Between childhood and adulthood we've all squashed down so many traits that we should really be trying to cultivate.


Consider the following:

  • Kids don't hate, they are taught too
  • Kids are curious and follow the urge to explore
  • Kids aren't self conscious 
  • Kids marvel at the wonders of the world
  • Kids dance the way they want to
  • Kids colour outside of the lines
  • Kids dress how they want because they thinks its pretty or interesting. Not because it's trendy
  • Kids like to build and take things apart to learn how they work
  • Kids aren't afraid to show love and will give hugs without worrying about what it looks like
  • Kids like to create for the sake of creating
  • via thesavvyphotographerblog.com
  • Kids aren't afraid of getting messy and understand that dirt won't hurt you
  • Kids will sing along to songs without fear of judgement
  • Kids use their imagination
  • Kids can play by themselves without fear of missing out
  • Kids question the "rules" and always ask "why?"
  • Kids value experiences and seek out fun
  • Kids respect animals
  • Kids think nature is cool
  • Kids don't count calories
  • Kids don't sugar coat their truth

So take a moment. 
Remember what it was like and how happy you would be if you still acted that way. 
Maybe we should all let our inner child out to play every once in a while.

love & light

I believe in the good things coming




This is a song that speaks right to my soul and can make my spirit soar no matter where I am or what mood I am in.
The lyrics, the beat, the melody. It all hits home for me.

Music has always been my savior in a way.
I have used music to get through the toughest times but also to amplify some of the most joyful times.

It has so much power.

Music can:
  • Shake you to your very core.
  • Grab you right in the gut and make you feel things through someone else’s perspective.
  • Be the greatest present someone can share with you.
  • Bond people together.
  • Be the outlet you need when just simple words just won’t do.
  • Bring a smile to your face or tears to your eyes.
  • Make you sing and dance along.
  • Make you feel less alone in the world.

When I sing and play music my mind clears and my troubles fade away .

One of my greatest goals in life is to write a song that will move people as much as I have been moved by the music of others.
