It’s inevitable. As much as I tell myself I am not going to do that thing at the end of the year and “reflect”… I think it is just human nature to take stock in ourselves every so often. And since the rest of the world is screaming new year, re-set.. well it’s a littleContinue reading “Reflections”

Choosing the correct route
The other night I went rock wall climbing with a few of my hiking family. Most of us had little to no experience. We were filled with anticipation and a little a bit of trepidation. We picked out our shoes which hugged our feet and would give us better grip, we put on our beltsContinue reading “Choosing the correct route”
A view from the cab(s), not yellow – Fire Tower
At the end of August I accompanied some of my hiking friends to the Catskills to hike the Red Hill Fire Tower. They had all committed to completing the #firetowerchallenge, I just wanted to hike on a gorgeous day in the Catskills.. I journal every hike, a glimpse at my notes reveal: beautiful day, perfectContinue reading “A view from the cab(s), not yellow – Fire Tower”
Why can’t we all be friends?
In a perfect world there would be no fighting. Everyone would be nice to one another and there would be no drama. Everyone would instantly like everyone.. Sadly there is no chance of that ever happening, ever… I feel mostly due to an individuals lack of self love and insecurity (sometimes masked as narcissism). TheContinue reading “Why can’t we all be friends?”
Hearts of Stone
I see hearts….everywhere… Sometimes I can’t tell if I see the hearts because I’m so full of love or I am desperate to feel a certain kind of love. Sometimes I wonder if they are about love at all. Maybe they are signs to keep going on my path, I’m headed in the right direction.Continue reading “Hearts of Stone”
Through the Fog and the Mist
Driving I was filled with a sense of angst and uneasiness. I had been holding onto frustration, disappointment and some anger. Comparison is the thief of joy… we hear that phrase and we generally conclude that we are feeling less than, but sometimes the opposite is true. We expect things from others based on whatContinue reading “Through the Fog and the Mist”
Walking gently away from 2021
Growing up Pop always said “one man’s garbage is another man’s treasure” actually he still says it … 2021 for me, was mostly a treasure and for my last day of 2021, I took the time to really wrap myself up in my riches. I did all the things. It was fabulous. It was fulfilling.Continue reading “Walking gently away from 2021”
Take a Hike
As long as I can remember, when asked, the mountains or the shore there was never any doubt in my mind. I understood the ocean and it seemed to understand me. One moment peaceful and calm, in and out, gently rolling, building momentum, and just like that a wave comes crashing down, forceful and courageous.Continue reading “Take a Hike”
Where do you find your motivation?
So my love language is Acts of Service – thank you Gary Chapman; followed closely by quality time. Receiving gifts speak to me when it is apparent the gift is about thought and understanding of who I am as a person and has an emotional element to it. Physical touch, well I’m not a huggerContinue reading “Where do you find your motivation?”
A day in the life of my journey to self discovery, good health and happiness
Good morning friends. Yesterday – What an absolutely fabulous, glorious day! Started the day as usual, bible reflection, #cko session. I had a little trouble really stirring up the energy level.. a bit disappointing after two fabulous sessions, but perhaps that was why. My body needed to take it down a notch even if myContinue reading “A day in the life of my journey to self discovery, good health and happiness”
