In case you missed out on previous editions of [Sam]antics, all you need to know is that I love words, and I like to find meaning beyond the dictionary definition. Enjoy the following random assortment, and share your thoughts. Happy Friday!
[Vacat]ion: When you go on vacation, truly “vacate” your life. Leave the worry and stress behind, unplug, and enjoy yourself. You deserve it.
Re[move]: Whether you’re removing yourself from a situation, removing something from your closet, or removing someone from your life, let yourself move on.
Sh[out]: Plain and simple: shout, let it out. Literally jump for joy. Dance in your kitchen. Give yourself a moment of pure happiness, no holds barred.
Lov[able] + Cap[able]: Always remember that you are “able,” you can do whatever you set your mind to. The only thing that’s stopping you is you. You have the capacity to love and be loved. Just believe in yourself.
[Obst]acle: There’s a reason this word has the same root as obstinate. Obstacles are stubborn, but although they may seem immovable, they can be overcome. After all, it’s not called an imposstacle.
[Good]bye: As difficult as it may be, sometimes saying bye can be a good thing. In fact, it may end up being one of the best decisions you’ve ever made. Try to look for the good in goodbyes.
