Lazy Summer Days! Try "NIKSEN" it's the Dutch way of "doing nothing."

What is it about summer that makes us feel lazy? Perhaps it's the hot summer heat, or the long bright sunny days, maybe it's watching the kids having a good time and being carefree or that fun picnic at the beach. I don't know about you but I'm having some lazy summer days just doing relaxing things like swimming in the lake, swinging in a hammock, paddle boarding on the water, having a picnic with friends, and eating homemade gelato in the park.

Lazy? It's nothing to be ashamed of, because everyone needs a break from responsibilities. The Dutch have the right idea. They practice "NIKSEN" which means "doing nothing." It's a way to relieve stress and  just relax. We should all try that.

It's late August and in some parts to the world this is the month to enjoy the last sweet days of summer. So go ahead be good to yourself and have some lazy summer days!

SUMMER, the season to have fun and enjoy life!

"Into Each Life Some Rain Must Fall" Not all Moments are Sunshine!

Now more than ever before I have learned to depend on myself and not to rely on others for acceptance, advice, friendship, kindness, or a listening ear. People are busy with their own lives and problems, and in all honesty they're looking out for number ONE (which is themselves). That's just reality. So....even though your life might be filled with glory and sunshine, it might not always stay that way. There are countless people on this planet who have had so much happiness and fulfillment than suddenly, out of the blue they find themselves lost and alone.

Cherish those moments of bliss and happiness because unfortunately the reality of life is that happiness come and goes, and that "Into each life a little rain must fall."
