Adventure

I don't need thousands of dollars
and a tour guide
to have an adventure.
I find adventure everywhere!
In the woods in front of my home.
In the meadow behind my home.
On a car ride with my husband.
Through the eyes of my grown children.
In the laughter of a baby.
In a trip to the grocery store.
Allow the wonder
of absolutely everything
to wash over you.
Absorb the colors, the smells, the sounds.
Take note of the quiet or the busyness.
Learn to love every second of every day.
It is all a gift.
It is all an adventure.

My Own Spin

Those that know me well,
know that I almost always put my own spin
on just about everything I do/say/write.
If there's a specific recipe . . .
it's more of a guideline.
If there's imperative directions . . .
it's more of a guideline.
So . . . today's quote was taken
from one Carly Fiorina and . . .
it's more of a guideline.
I made it my own!!!

Life is measured
in love and positive contributions.

It really is no more complicated
than that.
Folks, make it simple.
Keep it simple.
Do the right thing, all the time.

Love.
Positive contributions.

Enjoy your weekend.

You're Welcome!

Today is
You're Welcoming Day!
Imagine that.
A holiday with manners.

Be grateful for all your blessings.
Be thankful for what you have.
Be humbled by the goodness.
Never forget your
You're Welcome.

Greatfull

See what I did there?

Each of us is infused
with innate and undeniable gifts.
Talents we can cultivate
and give to one another.
Blessings bestowed
with the intention of sharing.

We are each
full of greatness.
Yes, you!
You are full of greatness!
Go and share all that you are.

Realize

The first step to gratitude
is to realize
how very blessed you are.
You're awake.
You're alive.
You're moving.
You're thinking.
You're interacting.
You're feeling.
You're loving.
Don't take these things for granted.
Realize the value of
every
single
second!

The Cost

The cost of not following your heart
is spending the rest of your life
wishing you had.

Take baby steps.
Learn new things.
Leap.
No regrets . . .
