Good In Tha Hood

Today wasn't just good. It was GREAT and I'm GRATEFUL! It has been filled with amazing friends, food, and fun on the sunny west coast! 
My heart is happiest in California and my smile is brightest near the water.
I gotta tell ya, I didn't know I was a hippy hipster until I arrived out here. I love me some crystal stores, communal workspaces, and boutique shops. I love being environmentally conscious and appreciated our waitress not giving us straws "ya know, because of the turtles. 😂 I enjoyed giving my LA friends a ride because they are 'sans' car. I even love the traffic.
Today, I was practically skipping through Marina Del Ray and Venice as I remembered the street art and coffee shop locations that I love.
I love the crowded streets. 
I love the unique places, outfits, and decor.
I love the chic style and laid back atmosphere. 
I love it all.
I am grateful to have the bravery to let go of the good for the great. There is nothing, NOTHING, bad or wrong about our pasts. It's just that when we hold onto them, we aren't truly free to create our future. More importantly, when we hold on, we aren't fully available to enjoy our present...and now is all we've really got.
Be here now.
Where would you LOVE to go?
What location makes your heart flutter? 
Where would you go if you could go RIGHT NOW?
Book the ticket. 
Make the drive. 
Hit submit on the reservation.
Your life is meant to be lived and this Earth is meant to be discovered.
The world is out there.
The people are awesome. 
The vibes are great. 
And it's all gooood in tha hooooood.
Go live the life you love.
