Going into this new semester with a whole new mindset, I wanted to find quotes that I knew would help encourage me. I have recently seen quotes all over instagram with the cutest and most creative designs. I noticed they are all by Morgan Harper Nichols, a christian songwriter/artist. All of the quotes I have chosen are her pieces.

"How beautifully you are learning the art of surrender, the courage to let go, in the wind of your unknowns." -MHN

So many changes have occurred from last semester to second, I can not wait to have the past behind me.

"You are different now, and that is a beautiful thing, and all of this is a part of the journey of becoming who you were meant to be."- Morgan Harper Nichols

New year, new mindset.

"It's okay if not every weekend doesn't lead to big moments and campfires and laughter that carries on for hours and hours. Some weekends might be quiet, still, with plenty of room to contemplate, and in that contemplation room, there is room to grow. So hold those weekends dear. Don't see them as less or as threats to more exciting times. There is beauty and truth even in the seemingly mundane." - Morgan Harper Nichols

Sometimes we need some quiet time to reflect.

"Breathe... Take air into your lungs. Be reminded of His love. Breathe it out. Let it go." - MHN

Even on rough days, it's a blessing to have the ability to breathe in air into your lungs and know there is Someone greater than you.

"One day you will look back on this season and know that you are truly blessed, and not because things were perfect but because you found the perfect grace in the worst of it."- Morgan Harper Nichols

The 'AH HA' moment

"The unknowns have no end, but neither does His grace." - MHN

The fear of the unknown is real... But I do not have to question his love for me and YOU.

"Morning is here, the day is new, perhaps this is where The Light breaks through." - Morgan Harper Nichols

It's never too late to be brand new!!

"If you ever feel the world around you is too busy to notice you, may you always be the one brave enough to stop and notice the world." MHN

Sometimes we get so caught up in ourselves that we forget there are other people in this world too.. Someone always has it worse than you.. Be conscious of those around you!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
