God damn it, you've got to be kind.

How was your weekend?

Anth had finals all weekend at school

 and I was lucky and got to listen in on his critique.

I have to say, my heart swelled with pride listening

to his professors talk about his work.
We celebrated his semester with
great Chinesse take-out and delicious beers.

All in all, yesterday was just a really really good day.

So cheers to the weekend and spending time

with loved ones doing the things you enjoy.

Along with that,

I saw a TON of great links

around the interwebs this week,
most of which focus on kindness.

Is it just me or is kindness the new happiness

in regards to "This is what you should do..." articles
that circulate around the net?

I have to say though,
I think the idea of focusing outside yourself
and being kind is more important than trying to be happy.
Just my opinion.

If only for a second.

(I swear I didn't get misty).

Whether it be Myers Briggs (INTP), Enneagram (9) or just horoscope based (Libra), I'm always curious about personality tests.
I thought this new one was pretty spot on although short.

 Vonnegut knows his stuff...

and other important lessons.

Might be a bit gimicky,

but I would still happily go.

Because who is perfect?

and Amy Poehler Christmas Caroling.
Because Christmas is magical and so is AP.

xoxo friends.
