Summer is fun. We all know what it’s like to enjoy a beautiful day in the summer. We live for this stuff, man. There are some things that can trip you up though.
- Not carving out enough time for you.
Summer can come and go rather quickly. It’s easy not take time out for you. We are always so focused on what’s next, what are we buying, what are we going to do tomorrow, etc. Take time out for you. Be intentional. Put you time on the calendar and keep them. Make family day plans. Plan a nice vacation. Do more in the summer than you ever have before. Life is short. Make it fun in the sun.
- Forgetting to stop and smell the roses, or plants, or both.
In the summer, things are blooming. It is said that a human can smell more than 1,000,000,000 smells. The next time you visit a beautiful garden, or pass up some blooming flowers – take a whiff. There is no comparison or substitution for these scents.
- Overlooking the freshest of fresh foods.
Strawberries
Blueberries
Oranges
Watermelons
Grapes
Blackberries
These are all popping in the summertime. Grab some and go!
An interesting thing about fruit-flavored candy is that the candy companies all try to emulate the freshest fruit, but still miss the mark. There is no substitute. Eat all the fresh fruit you can this summer – it is in abundance.
