Quick Inspirations

This has to be some kind of record--2 blog posts 2 DAYS IN A ROW?? Well, this one will be short, I can tell you that much. I don't know about all of you out there, but I am a serious pin-addict on Pinterest. Thankfully for the sake of humanity, I have toned it down over the last year. I remember when I first discovered it a couple years ago and I could. not. stop. pinning. It was scary. Just know that you certainly did not want to see me at night after an x-hour-long pinning session, my face illuminated by the glow of my computer screen, surrounded by nacho and chocolate bits all over my bed. I probably looked like a cavewoman.

Moving along to my point here: my largest board is Quotes. I think the reason for that is because we all need little reminders when we get caught up in our world to relax, let baggage go, move forward, get up and do something with your life, or whatever else it may be (all of this can be accomplished once you tear yourself away from your computer first, of course.)

Personally, I love coming across a quote or song lyrics that relates perfectly to the current state of mind I may be in. It's proof that at least one other person in this world, the other person who created it, has felt or thought what you have.

Here are a few pins I stumbled across way back when that really kept me motivated and inspired when I was going through all the work of applying and planning this trip to South America. Sure these are about travel, but the beauty of it is that it's all up for interpretation. Enjoy :)
