Hello there... what can I say, I love to travel and hang out. I am very much a busy beaver and like to plan things. I have been to 25 countries now, and have some great stories :) I just spent the summer traveling around Eastern Africa. It was an interesting trip in which I learned more about myself and the culture of the region. My boyfriend Josh and I live in our house with our two pups Gunner and Kit here in the Couv. I also like to cook up a mean meal and entertain guests. The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.WORDS TO LIVE BY:
I'm reading more and dusting less. I'm sitting in the yard and admiring the view without fussing about the weeds in the garden. I'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time working.
Whenever possible, life should be a pattern of experiences to savor, not to endure. I'm trying to recognize these moments now and cherish them.
I'm not "saving" anything; we use our good china and crystal for every special event such as losing a pound, getting the sink unstopped, or the first Amaryllis blossom.
I wear my good blazer to the market. My theory is if I look prosperous, I can shell out $28.49 for one small bag of groceries. I'm not saving my good perfume for special parties, but wearing it for clerks in the hardware store and tellers at the bank.
"Someday" and "one of these days" are losing their grip on my vocabulary. If it's worth seeing or hearing or doing, I want to see and hear and do it now.
I'm not sure what others would've done had they known they wouldn't be here for the tomorrow that we all take for granted. I think they would have called family members and a few close friends. They might have called a few former friends to apologize and mend fences for past squabbles. I like to think they would have gone out for a Chinese dinner or for whatever their favorite food was. I'm guessing; I'll never know.
It's those little things left undone that would make me angry if I knew my hours were limited. Angry because I hadn't written certain letters that I intended to write one of these days. Angry and sorry that I didn't tell my husband and parents often enough how much I truly love them. I'm trying very hard not to put off, hold back, or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives. And every morning when I open my eyes, tell myself that it is special.
People say true friends must always hold hands, but true friends don't need to hold hands because they know the other hand will always be there.
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.
