I'm rooting for you today.



Whatever you're doing today, I'm rooting for you...unless you're an asshole. I don't root for assholes.

Everyone else, I'm rooting for you, because why wouldn't I? Being an encourager is an important part of who I am. It doesn't take away from anything I want in life to hope others find what they want too.

There's enough sun for all of us to shine under. There's enough pain for all of us to feel the pinch of that, too, but we won't talk about the pain and I wouldn't wish for you to get your fair share (unless you are an asshole, see above). Bottom line, there's enough of all of it to go around.

Today I'm off of work so I've already glided into the weekend, and I'm hoping you have a swift slide into it as well. Given what's going on in this crazy world, do whatever you need to to find your peace today. If we all think about what we can personally do to help others find theirs and then actually do those things, we'll be golden.

If you like this post, you might like this one too.

  3. Love this post. Have you ever read the book "Wonder" ? It probably is a tween but in the book there is a quote from the main character "everybody deserves a standing ovation because we all overcometh the world RJ PALACIO I just love that quote.
    Have a great weekend.

  4. Amen❣️ There's enough good to go around.
    Sending out happiness and joy for the success of others brings it back to you.
    Sending the lights to the a-holes.
    Peace and love ❤️ to infinity and beyond to all. Love. Your. Momma.

  5. This post is awesome. The world needs more encouragers because there are a lot of people who think there isn't enough sun for everyone. That makes me sad for them. This post makes a great Friday!

  6. I love that there are people like you. The older I get, the more I realize that there are some things that must have been ingrained in me, and ways I want to think that rise to the surface that I just don't like. Negativity and self-doubt are huge among them. When I talk to my parents now, I see it and I get it, but trying to undo the ways in which their outlooks affected me is hard. I love reminders like this. There's enough to go around and one person (or many!) doing well doesn't mean there's less opportunity for me.

  7. Agreed. Sometimes a word of encouragement even from a complete stranger can lift your spirits and change your whole perspective. Have a great weekend!

  8. Yeah! I'm rooting for you, too! :) This reminds me of a quote I heard about blowing out someone's candle doesn't make yours any brighter.
    Happy Weekend!

  10. Amen. Love this and need this so much today. And every day! If everyone could just hold this mindset and value, the world would be a much happier place. Enjoy your 3-day weekend!

  12. I love this idea...that just because you're happy for someone doesn't mean that you have less happiness for yourself. I've met people in the past who this was true for--somehow by showing happiness or excitement for someone else, it diminished their own "shine". I dont have time for people like that anymore, and appreciate those who root for others. So thank you--and I'm rooting for you too!

  23. I couldn't agree more. I don't understand the competitive thing... nor do I understand not being happy for others' celebrations, milestones, and achievements. I just don't.
