Hey Baby

Well hello official blogging world! This is a brand new start for me so I'd first like to explain why I'm creating this blog: not only was I inspired by my best friend Emma Vidmar, but I have been inspired by many many other bloggers who have honestly motivated me to become better and I can only hope to do the same for others with my own written thoughts. I am at a point in my life (like many others I know) where I am trying to "find" myself, figure out who I really am and want to become; however, I realized today that if I'm attempting to find who I am then that means I once lost who I was! Um, scary. Then I came across this quote:

Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself. 

That's from George Bernard Shaw. He's brilliant- he's written a few things you know, like that play Pygmalion that "My Fair Lady" is based off of. Yeah, you should read it, it's good, and obviously this guy knows what he's talking about, I mean that quote explains everything really. 

ANYWAY- I just wanted to start a blog to allow myself (and whoever decides to read whatever I choose to write about) to appreciate what I have each day- what experiences I go through and how I handle each one, what people affect my life and how they change me, what challenges I come to and conquer, what new ideas cross my mind and are actually fulfilled in reality! Each day brings something new, something to help create the "you" you will become and now's the time to focus on each thing however monumental or minuscule they seem! 

I plan to post about adventures I go through on a day to day basis. Now, whether that means I'll be sewing a dress from the DI/ Goodwill to make it look actually wearable OR posting a new awesome healthy baking recipe OR a new dance video OR simply a spiritual scripture or thought or event that really impacted me OR maybe just share a story about a person I really have no idea! I just know I will be posting about something lovely that happened to me each day and I can't wait to start this new adventure in order to begin many many more! 

Smile, you're beautiful- look at you you're seriously radiating with glamour! Now go out and get the world and find what you appreciate most because it makes you YOU! Let me know what you think! I love comments and feedback :) 

With bundled bundles of love, 

Hayley Lynn

ps: the title to each post is actually going to be a song from the 1950s or 60s considering those really were when the cutest songs were created. "Hey Baby" was sang by Bruce Channel- you can find it on the "Dirty Dancing" soundtrack and buy it on itunes if you want something great to snap to ever :) enjoy!
