Your Best Life

I feel like I need to say a few words about Mr. Jobs. He and I are so different. I wish I had a fraction of his brain power, but what we do share is our belief in taking leaps. Following our gut. Trusting our instincts. Our love of design. Living our best life. Whatever that may be. My best steps in life have been leaps - I left the south after living there my entire life because I felt like I belonged in New England...a month later I met Mr. C. I left my ladder climbing corporate advertising job on just a feeling that I needed to be doing something I was more passionate about...a month later I connected with Style Me Pretty. There are so many more examples, and so many times people think I am crazy while taking those leaps, but come to find out I've just always trusted my heart. Trusted that my "mistakes" are for a purpose. Tried to live my best life. The quotes that have surfaced since Steve Jobs passed are such a fabulous reminder of why living your own life, full of passion, is so important. So selfishly, I wanted a place to keep them so I can go back to them from time to time...

Thank you Mr. Jobs for not only changing my life with all the fabulous products I can't imagine my life without...but for trusting your gut and going against the grain.
