Picture Day!

Best foot forward, because it is picture day.

Well, elementary school is having picture day today and our house was buzzing. Favorite outfits, nicely done hair, all smiles. It is such a wonderful energy. One I wish we could bottle up everyday.

That had me thinking, wouldn’t it be great if we could bottle up energy to use later. Sure, you can try to find the mindset or recreate the feeling; but there are some moments that energy is the only way to describe the excitement within.

Picture Day. As a child, any day I was getting a present. Vacations. Snow Days.

Essentially, any time a child gets to be pure joy.

But why as adults, does it not feel the same way. Why can’t we just be giddy and excited?

Clearly, I am aware of and must state that I recognize the jaded aspects of adults, the lives they lived, etc…

BUT….

Hear me out, what if we attempted to find true bliss in things. What if tomorrow was picture day for you? How would you approach your planning of tonight? Would you lay out clothes? Would you organize your morning? Would you prepare in advance so you have time to look your best? And since it is not a real picture day, what if every activity you do tomorrow has to be “picture day” ready so in concept you need it to be photo ready. I bet you would have a different mindset going into the day.
