Three Things

Life has its ups and downs. That is certain. Sigh... One can easily lose perspective.
 I have found a simple little method for keeping my spirits aloft. Every day I seek out Three Things that make me feel ESPECIALLY content ~ Three Things that give me a little kick in the pants to remind me that life is good ~ my little bits of "snow in the air" if you will.
These Three Things can be as simple as a curtain fluttering in the breeze...or a perfectly ripe banana...or an off-color joke that makes you laugh so hard that your ribs hurt. Anything.

So these are my latest Three Things:

Bill Cunningham via The Sartorialist
While reading the Sunday Style section of the New York Times, I was reminded of how much I ADORE Bill Cunningham. Did you see this film? It made me cry.

I spotted these on my way to the library. I think tangerine is the color of the year.


And I found this cool video of The Syndicate of Sound while attempting to load " Little Girl" onto my ipod. Suits by the sea in 1966. Awesome.

What are your THREE THINGS??????

  4. I'm the same. Even if I've had a bad day, I try to see the silver lining & pick out the moments that were wonderful. I think that's why I love instagram so much because I can capture the beautiful little moments in each day & gmo back to them whenever I want.

    My 3 things for this week would be:
    1.Sharing cocktails, too much food & plenty of laughs with my family by the beach over the Easter weekend.

    2. Seeing a wonderful version of Macbeth at the Sydney Opera House the other night by Bell Shakespeare. Lots of inspiration there!

    3.Sharing burgers & fries and some giggles last night with my girlfriends while getting our hair done.
