take time to be still :: farmgirl paints cuff

Be still. Those words seem to be so hard to listen to in the middle of life. Just when you think life is getting ready to slow down, the calendar gets more booked than ever before, responsibilities pile up, and life just doesn’t leave room for still and quiet moments. And yet, somehow, those still moments are exactly what are needed to keep all of the craziness of life in perspective.  For me my busy days look different now than they did just a few short years ago, but yet they always seem to go by quickly, and yesterday and today, still, quiet moments are important.
The cuff I received from Farmgirl Paints is a beautiful reminder that I wear daily to remember to take time to be still. I love wearing something that I love the looks of and the message it displays. Farmgirl Paints has beautiful cuffs in many colors and designs. You can pick out your own wording or choose from a premade list! I know you will find something your style and something that will say just what you are looking for.  Use code simplemom through November 2nd to receive 15% off your order!

I love everything about this shop!  The owner is doing something she loves herself, creating beautiful pieces of jewelry for others.  Her mission statement is a quote from Erma Bombeck “When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, ‘I used everything you gave me’.”

So as fall gets closer, the school year goes on, and life stays busy for all of us, remember to take time each day to be still.

Be still….and listen to your children.

Be still….and enjoy a sunrise or sunset.

Be still….and take time to enjoy a cup of tea or coffee.

Be still….and love the moments with your family and friends.

Be still….and thank God for each day he gives you.

And sometimes just be still.
