Words

For awhile now (a few years? more?) I’ve been collecting words, phrases, sometimes quotes, and displaying them on the wall next to my desk. I swear, I never thought I’d be this person…I hate that live laugh love crap. When I come across something that resonates, I pin it on a Pinterest board, and periodically print them out and hang them up. Sometimes its something I’ve scribbled on a post-it. And, I’ve found that I like it. With all the chaos and business of being human, it’s hard to keep things in my head, so having a reminder in my line of sight of something motivational or inspirational or extremely practical… has really helped. Often it’s career-related, sometimes it’s personal, and all of it deals with mental health. It’s fascinating to me to see how this board of mine changes and evolves as time passes and things happen in my life.

Collecting these words from other people has led me to creating some of my own that I haven’t seen anywhere else and thought should exist. If any of these resonate with you, please feel free to Pin or print out and hang up for your own mental health. (For personal use only, please.)
