Isn't it weird how you can experience situations throughout your life that are so heartbreaking or stressful that you can't ever imagine being okay again? Then a few weeks, months, or even years later, you notice that the days go by without thinking about those times. You can laugh, you can smile, you can go about your day and realize that you're so much stronger and happier that you thought you could be ever again. Although bad times might always be in your mind, in your memory, or in your heart, but somehow you feel at peace with your past; and the memories that come back don't punch you in the heart like they used to. You realize that you are, in fact, as strong as everyone was saying you were at the time and that you would, in fact, get through what you went through. Isn't it amazing how much we can change, how much we can learn, and how much we can grow? taken in West Lafayette, Indiana by @isaacwromig

The best life exists beyond every practical, worldly thing we chase and desire. The sunset isn’t more vivid sitting by the poolside in your mansion. Music doesn’t sound better if you look like a model. A perfectly ripe strawberry doesn’t taste any better if you’re naturally gifted or athletic.

All these are harmful distractions. They take our attention and joy away from the things that actually matter. They drive people to sacrifice everything for money, working hour after hour, waiting to buy the thing that’ll finally make them happy. There’s so much more to life that these people are missing. Interactions with people, laughs, family, contentment.

We are so programmed to love the big, shiny things that the world has to offer that we often forget to love the things right in front of us. It’s easy to become so focused on the end goal and the bottom line that we get stuck in an endless cycle of chasing. Relentlessly striving towards goals only to achieve them and move on to the next thing. It never ends, and it never brings fulfillment.

The best things in life are inexpensive, free even. Like being pulled in for a hug, feeling a breeze run through your hair, or hanging out with your friends. Live in the moment and enjoy every moments you can! taken in West Lafayette, Indiana by @isaacwromig

For all the people who walk into your life, there will be an important few who fill your heart with memories and your mind with a world of possibilities. These are the ones to hold on to, the ones that show you how much you matter. So with these few you encounter, give them your time. For time is the only thing that can't be returned. It is the most precious thing in life. When you give someone your time, you are saying; these are all the minutes I will never get back, but they will be linked with you as memories!

“No difficulty can discourage, no obstacle dismay, no trouble dishearten the man who has acquired the art of being alive. Difficulties are but dares of fate, obstacles but hurdles to try his skill, troubles but bitter tonics to give him strength; and he rises higher and looms greater after each encounter with adversity.” – Ella Wheeler Wilcox

We need to accept that we won’t always make the right decisions, that we’ll screw up royally sometimes―understanding that failure is not the opposite of success, it’s part of success. by @isaacwromig

Sometimes you've got to let everything go. If you are unhappy with anything...whatever is bringing you down, get rid of it! Because you'll find that when you're free, your true creativity and true self comes out. taken in Purdue University by @isaacwromig

Day 8 was another cold and cloudy day. I did see the largest glacier in Europe and some pretty cool mountains. Day 9 was very windy and cold. I did go to Blue Lagoon was it wasn't that bad outside. Day 10 was very cool. I went to Gullfoss and got some gifts in the gift shop. Also a $7 cup of hot chocolate, but it was good. #iceland #icelandnature #icelandtrip2017 by @isaacwromig
