goodbye 2012

. . . many good things happened this year, but we also had many unfortunate disasters & tragedies in the world.  a few of which i cannot seem to stop thinking about.  

we don't have the answers but what i do know is that i can only continue to be thankful & to give thanks every moment i can. every moment that i remember to be thankful that is because hey, we are all imperfect & at times forget to appreciate our daily moments...even the bad ones.

well, i'm eager to start the new year...to continue to improve as a wife, daughter, sister, & friend. eager to continue becoming a better me to myself!

i say, tonight go out & find your bliss whether you are out & about or staying in....make a wish & know that you are blessed!

HAPPY new year!

mambo design studio





. . . these fabulous lamps are designed by mambo - a design firm in portugal.

i love the retro & geometric feel, not to mention how the polished gold gives it such a luxe look!
