Its a Beautiful Life

Hello!

So today I thought I'd talk about what my day consisted of!

Today I went on a small walk around my village. My village is more like a town but there is such a variety of things to do! There's the beautiful scenery which you can find on the cycle path, or the shops (not to many of these, but still!) or the local park, there's so much too see! 

I'd consider myself lucky to live where I do because there are so many beautiful beaches just a stones throw away. However I see so many people who live in places like me that take it for granted! I'm sure many of you do too! I did at one point but then I realised that there is so much beauty in the world and sometimes we are just to busy to notice!

Mobile phones are a great thing but when your walking somewhere and using your mobile phone you don't actually get to see everything, you just see a small digital screen with what other people are up to written on it. 

If you actually put your phone into your bag/pocket for just 5 minutes I'm positive you would be suprised at whats around you! And it is amazing!

That's exactly what I've been doing recently and I wanted to share it with you all! It also disconnects you from the world and releases any stress, worries, thoughts and just enables you to take in everything! 

  • Going for a walk is the best thing to deal with stress

Or just to make you smile for that matter!

So this is my challenge for you, at some point today, or this week, just stop what your doing, put your mobile phone away for a moment and take in your surroundings! 

Even if you live in a big city with no countryside, or in the middle of no where with loads of countryside! I'm sure wherever you are there will be something that will amaze you.

Comment down below to let me know how you get on! I didn't take any pictures of my walk today because I wasn't using my phone obviously! But I'll leave you with a picture I found on the internet to inspire you. .

2015

Hello!

Although I only started this blog earlier on I've been thinking about it for a while and I'm too excited to wait a few days before writing another post, so i'm just going to do it now!

It isn't going to be a long one but, it might possibly make you smile! 

So today is the 1st day of a new year. At this exact moment that i'm writing this its 22:39. The fact that its a new year means so many new exciting things are waiting to happen! There are so many opportunities that will unfold as the year goes on.

Now, as most of you can probably relate to at the end of the year people begin to use these common phrases..

"2014 (eg) Was a rubbish year, I didn't do anything!"

or

" What a waste of a year "

and so on and so forth!


And they begin to reflect on the year in a negative way. But surely in that year, the whole 365 days of it there must have been something positive that happened? And i'm sure there was! But people don't see it. 

                                    That is one of the key steps to happiness...


  • Look at the world in a positive way. If your thoughts are positive they will shine out of you like sunbeams and you will always be happy.
Now its the 1st of January, the 1st page of a 365 day book. The book can be about anything you want its up to you. This is your year, but its only going to be as good as you make it. 

So make it a good one.

Online Smiles - First Ever Post !!!

Hello!

Firstly before anything I must say Happy New Year! I hope that 2015 brings amazing things to each and everyone of you no matter who you may be.

Now, you might wonder why I've created this blog?

Well...  Recently I've been thinking about things alot more and there are many things I have realised..

1. The world is a lot more than just a phone screen & social media.

2. Life can be quite difficult at times

3. The world doesn't have enough happiness in it!

That's why I'm here!

There is so much to be happy for in this amazing world and I think that everyone deserves to be happy. I know some people do find that difficult though so I would like to help.

I want to make a difference in the world and I'm not expecting to make a big difference but if I help even one person I will have made a difference and that's all I want to do!

That's what this blog is all about. 

Over the forthcoming year I'm going to post things to make you smile, laugh, cheer you up whatever you want I'll write about. Anything positive to put you in a good mood!

Feel free to comment down below any stories you would like to share with me or if you just want a general chat i'll be here! I may not know you but think of me as your 'online friend'. 

See you soon!
