Little Things People Tend to Forget

1. Actions Speak Louder Than Words

You can say you care and ramble on about how much someone means to you, but the only way for them to know you actually care is through your actions. When you really care about someone these actions shouldn't have to be forced or seen as a hassle. You should put the effort in because all you want to do is see that person smile and be happy. This is so crucial in all relationships not just to keep the other person happy but to remind them that they're special to you and that you're thinking of them.

2. You Can’t Take Anything For Granted

When things become routine it’s easy to get comfortable and start assuming nothing will ever change. Although, in that very moment is when change is most likely to occur. When people get comfortable they begin not putting as much effort in and taking things/people in for granted. Life is unpredictable and you never know when you something could be taken for you. That’s why its important to enjoy the things you have and make the most of everyday with all the blessings you have in your life.

3. Live In The Moment

While it’s good to plan the future, life changes and obstacles appear unexpectedly. The only thing you're promised is the very moment you're in. Embrace it, enjoy it, make the most of it. Life is what you make it, so make it the best it can be.

4. Don’t Look Back With Regrets

People make mistakes and life isn't perfect but that’s what makes it beautiful. Imperfection allows for improvement which keeps life progressing. For that very reason, we cant dwell on small mistakes or misjudgments that led to a bad choice. We can’t move forward if we keep looking back on things that we can no longer change. Don’t regret anything because in that moment, when you made that decision, it was something that you chose and that you wanted. In the future if you look back wishing you made a different decision, you should take those feelings and use them to make a wiser decision in the future. But dealing with uneasy feelings of regret is an unnecessary strain over something that can’t be changed or taken back.

5. Life Goes On

Everyone goes through ups and downs in their life. When life seems tough or unmanageable you always have to remember that life goes on and with every down just secures room for things to get better. Pick your head up and stay strong, for life goes on and it can always get better.

6. Everyone Is Special In Their Own Way

People always find things to be self conscious about. It’s very easy for someone to find something they don't like about themselves when they're constantly comparing themselves to others. Don’t get down on yourself when you find your imperfections because while you see someone who is better at something than you are, theirs something else that your better at than that person. Every person is different but that’s what makes each individual special in their own way. So don’t harp on your flaws but emphasize your uniqueness.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
