The world is your oyster.

You’ve probably heard this phrase at least once in your life. It was created by William Shakespeare in his play ‘The Merry Wives of Windsor’. It’s good every so often to stop and take a look at the opportunities that are all around you and decide if any of them are worth your while to pursue. This is especially true when you feel unsettled or unhappy with your life. It never hurts to reassess where you are and what lies before you. You may feel inspired to take a new path or at least consider the choices you have that could be a positive addition to your life. Need a place to help inspire you? Come to the beach! It has a way of giving one perspective.

Every little thing is gonna be alright.

If you find yourself in the midst of hard times, remember this phrase and put it on repeat in your head. Or better yet, listen to this famous Bob Marley song—Three Little Birds—and really focus on the simple yet meaningful lyrics. “Rise up this mornin’; Smile with the risin’ sun” is a really great place to start. And if we’ve now gotten this tune stuck in your head, we’re not sorry!  

Find your anchor.

What grounds you? What provides you with calmness and stability among the ever-changing waters of life? Find that thing. Whatever your anchor may be, let it help keep you still in a world that sometimes leaves you with a feeling of unrest and uncertainty. When the tides change around you, sometimes you have to go with the flow and other times you have to dig in and stay put. Find your anchor and know how to best use it.

I’ve got sunshine on a cloudy day.

And so does the Gulf of Mexico! The clouds pass quickly here and before you know it, the sunshine is streaming through the clouds and shining down on everything again. Most of the days are sunny here, but if a few clouds come your way take heart and know that there is abundant sunshine coming your way in no time. This area just happens to have a sunny disposition even on a cloudy day. 

Wash the weight of the world from your shoulders.

There is something about water that signifies renewal and a fresh start. Sometimes it’s as simple as immersing yourself in a large body of water like the Gulf of Mexico and allowing yourself to feel small in a big world. Refresh your body and your mind then allow whatever is weighing you down to be washed away, if only for a little while. Repeat as needed. Salt water is known for its healing properties, so go ahead and take full advantage and seize the opportunity any time you can. 

Take time to coast.

Is your life full speed ahead all or most of the time? That’s not good! You definitely need to bring it down a notch and allow yourself some time to coast. Don’t push yourself to your limits every day and not expect your body, mind and spirit to give you some pushback. Everyone and everything needs time to reset, refuel and restart. You do too. Why not come on down to Florida’s Gulf Coast and allow yourself a little time to coast through life for a few weeks. Book your Gulf beach vacation today!
