Sometimes it may not feel like it, but I assure you, your hopes and dreams as within reach.

goatsTwo years ago, I was spending some time on the internet (to be honest, as I do everyday). I came across the most magnificent collection of portraits photographs by Kevin Horan, published in the Guardian. This was before the Goat of the Day blog, perhaps even before I thought about specializing in goat photography and understanding the connection between positive vibes and goats. I was totally inspired, and many people have shared these photographs with me since. One of the best parts about starting Goat of the Day is that people share the goats they come across in their lives or on the internet with me. So, today’s goat of the day comes courtesy of Kevin Horan and the Guardian. I hope that you all find inspiration somewhere this weekend.
Meet Lily, the goat of the day. Maybe one day, I will be so lucky as to take goat portraits in such a setting.

goatsToday is the 182nd day of the year, so we are halfway through! Time really goes by quite quickly sometimes – take some time to reflect on all that you have experienced and accomplished so far this year – and perhaps revisit and reimagine resolutions and goals you set for yourself 182 days ago and make new ones for the next 182 days ahead.
Already halfway to 2020….

goatsNo matter what time of year it is, what time of day it is, the right choice is always to be kind and compassionate. If you are ever in doubt of what to do, choose the thing that is the most kind.
There is a beautiful mural nearby where I live that says “Kindness is always in season”

goatsDo you ever feel like you are an impostor? Somehow careening along, worried that someone might figure out that you don’t belong, or that your accomplishments are not your own? Imposter syndrome can be really difficult and a cause of stress, depression and other bad things. Take solace in the fact that even if you feel like you aren’t, you are worthy, you do belong, and your accomplishments are well deserved because you are amazing.
Everyone feels like an imposter at some point – just remind yourself that you deserve your success

goatsIt is never too late to try something new or embark on a new adventure. Mondays are a great time to put your new ideas in motion.
The only thing in your way is you – go for it!

goatsI hope that if you are reading this that you had a lovely, fun-filled Sunday. I was lucky enough to spend some time with some goats at a local town and country fair. I am grateful that you are still with me, after over six months of daily goats, and appreciate your patience when you may see a goat on multiple occasions. I truly do my best to maintain all original material and goats that I have personally met, or goats that my friends have personally met. Here is an adorable baby goat to give you inspiration for the week ahead.
What is not to love about a baby goat and those big floppy ears.

goatsSometimes you don’t really need an inspirational quote to get you through the day. Sometimes, you just need a big cup of coffee.
Thursdays can be exhausting, but there is hope for the weekend, plus there is always coffee!

goatsWhat are your plans for the week? It is good to have an idea of what you need to get done and hope to accomplish, but it is also good to be flexible and able to say “yes!” to surprise opportunities that might come up throughout the week. Saying yes may just be the start of something incredible!
Flexible planning is a great way to organize your time!

goatsOne of the best things about the Goat of the Day blog is the friendly reminders that even in our fast-paced, technological-social-media-driven world, people are still keeping tabs on you. I was an early adopter of Facebook way back in 2005 and can say with confidence that I have personally met all 615 people who are my friends. Sometimes, friends that I have known ages ago who I otherwise would have lost complete contact with, send me messages with personal goat photographs. Today’s goats are one such picture, from a high school friend of mine, Tiffany. Tiffany was super cool and liked vampires and drove a Saab. She joined the army and we lost touch, but thanks to Facebook we’re able to keep tabs. Thanks Tiffany, for sending me a picture of two fabulous angora goats from Deanna Rose Farmstead in Overland Park, Kansas.
What a time to be alive!
