From A Different Perspective

View things from a different perspective. Enjoy the little things in life! Spending 20% of my time on something that I enjoy, and has a big piece of my heart is incredible. In school, my English class was assigned a "20% Project" based on a "TED" video.  The purpose of this project is for students to spend 20% of their time on something they enjoy and want to share with others. My project will be based on enjoying the little things in life! Whether it's finding joy in the warmth of a person's smile or a simple "hello," I want to share that you can find happiness in anything! I know, i know; it's easier said than done, but hey! If you set your mind to it and say "hey, maybe this can work," then there you go! Anyways, we all know that life isn't all sunshine and rainbows, but if you can take a breath and find something that can make you smile, that's what counts! For all we know, tomorrow isn't guaranteed, so make the little things count! You never know; maybe you holding the door open for someone or just acknowledging their presence may have made their day. It's not just about making yourself happy, but also spreading the joy and kindness to others. To help me throughout this journey, I am having my Confirmation sponsor, Mary, be my "mentor." She is such an incredible person and has enough love and happiness for the world! I cannot wait to see the outcome of this project because it is so near and dear to my heart.  


: our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.
