I’ll be honest, the summer is my favorite season. The days are long, bright and warm. Also, during the summer I still have fall to look forward to—which I also love, but a little less.

For me, fall feels like a Sunday night when I was in high school, trying to enjoy the last few hours of the weekend before the alarm goes off the next morning and remember the test you haven’t prepared for.

Even in the most trying of times, it’s important to find the small moments of joy that take place during each day. It might be a smile shared with your postal carrier, watching a funny video or even telling silly jokes.  It’s scientifically proven that laughter is contagious just like hope and optimism.

This time in our lives is both unprecedented and uncertain. It may be hard to imagine right now, but we will experience some positive impact through all of this. We all will all tap into resources we didn't know we had. We will grow from this and our strength and resilience will grow accordingly.

Everything in life is impermanent. Good turns bad, sickness turns to health. What we don't have today, we may have tomorrow. This is a concept kids can learn early.

If you know me, you are well aware that I am a girl who loves quotes, motivational/inspirational books, feel good movies and happy endings of all kinds.

Sometime in the near future, we will have this super cool office where all of our thoughts and ideas (and dreams) become our beloved products.  My imagination tells me this space will have loads of natural light, great music playing in the background, large tables for spreading out and of course, a fully stocked supply of snacks and caffeine-laden drinks.  

It will be ours.
