I have never been one to set resolutions for the New Year, but I do love reading little ‘mottos’. They are easy to read and be mindful of as you walk through the next year of your life.
Here are some of my Words to Live By to start this New Year…
Sometimes you just need to jump for joy.
Don’t be afraid to go after what you really want.
It’s ok to be silly.
Don’t just listen, but really hear what someone is saying.
Take the time to just hang out with your friends.
Happiness was made to share.

Take care of those that are smaller than you.
Take time to smell the flowers…or in Dolly’s case ‘eat the flowers’ 🙂
Be a shoulder to lean on.
Be proud of your accomplishments.
Turn your face to the sun.
