“We are stars wrapped in skin. The light you are looking for has always been within”

The Word Virus

I can’t wear this ASOS top without thinking of the stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. I don’t know anyone personally with their name on that walk of fame but I shamelessly do know that everyone is a star in their own right, shining in different ways. When the inevitable discomfort of change or growth comes around during the “figuring out what makes you shine” process, just remember that stars shine the brightest in the darkness – the perfect metaphor for life’s struggles. What makes you get out of bed in the morning?

Create more time in your day to do more of that.And twinkle, twinkle like the star that you are. Sounds so simple when you put it on paper (er..in a blogpost) like that, right? But mix this theory into our daily lives – and figuring out what makes us tick can get messy. All any of us can do is put on our favorite song and do one little thing everyday towards our shine until before we know it, it’s a big thing.
