you’re awake. you’re awesome. live like it.

Have you heard of Kid President? He’s a cute little guy filled with fun tidbits of wisdom and encouragement. His videos make me smile, they make me think, and they fill me with encouragement.

I came across this one recently and shared it with my nephew. He’s had some not-so-great days lately and is feeling discouraged. When I saw this video, I immediately thought of him … cuz some days we get ice cream … and well … some days we don’t. But just because we don’t, doesn’t mean the life we’ve been given doesn’t have a purpose.

Go deeper with me here, I’m not talking just about ice cream! :)

Anyway. Just a simple video full of encouragement and truth to brighten your Friday.

{if you’re reading in an RSS feed, click here to see the most awesome-sauciest encouragement ever!}

some days you’ll get ice cream …

And some days you won’t.

some days your kite will fly high …

And some days it will get stuck in a tree.

We all mess-up sometimes. The biggest mess-up? Not forgiving each others mess-ups.

Treat everyone like it’s their birthday. Even if they don’t deserve it.

Take brain pictures.

You were made from love. For love. And to spread love.

Love is always louder. No matter what.
Even if hate has a bullhorn, love is louder.

There are plenty of reasons to dance, you just have to look for them.

We should give people high fives just for getting out of bed.

You’re awake. You’re awesome. Live like it.

    like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally,
    if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be a lot more useful than ever before.

    I believe everything posted was very logical. However, consider this, suppose you added a little content?
    I am not suggesting your content isn’t good, but suppose you added a title to maybe grab people’s
    attention? I mean you’re awake. you’re awesome.
    live like it. – Tracie Stier-Johnson is kinda plain. You should peek at Yahoo’s home
    page and see how they create article titles
    to grab people to click. You might add a related video or a
    pic or two to grab people interested about everything’ve written.
    In my opinion, it would bring your posts a little bit more interesting.

    It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appeal.
