Chapped lips are the epitome of sadness, but with lip balm, you can have soft lips all the time. Imagine a life without lip balm, what a dry and depressing world that would be.

Bags are so great! It holds all your stuff and makes them portable! If you’re currently upset at life, think about how much worse it could be! I mean, we could’ve been forced to carry our phones, notebooks, textbooks, pencils, gum, lunch and keys with our own hands! What a nightmare! Good thing we’ve got backpacks to help us with that.

I, for one, LOVE tape. Huge shoutout to duct tape for being so strong and manageable. Tape is the best. Faster than glue and less messy. Tape can effectively join things together AND has the ability to reverse your actions. Unsatisfied with how you taped up your poster? No worries, you can just TAKE THE TAPE OFF and try again. I don’t know about you, but that’s just the greatest thing I’ve ever heard.

Don’t just show your followers you’re simply relaxing by the water, let them know you’re flexing a pink flamingo too.


Next time you feel blue, take a minute to think about these things and how they can bring joy into your everyday life! It’s always the little things that matter!
