Being nice to yourself.

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward. Sometimes it’s the simple things that mean so much. It’s not always about buying a stranger’s cup of coffee. Sometimes it means getting on the floor to play with your kid. It might mean putting your phone away so you can be completely present with the person talking to you. Or you could learn the name of the cashier checking you out or the barista making your coffee. You could cook your spouse’s favorite dinner. There are so many ways to give back. Most of them are small gestures for the giver. But for the one receiving you never know when that is the little help needed that will get them back moving again.

So, for today, try to just smile more. Be conscious of it. Recently the sun has not been out and with the gray skies often come gloomy faces. See how a simple facial change makes the world a better place.

Happy Crafting!

With inky fingers,
