MY BAGS ARE ALWAYS PACKED
JUST TELL ME WHERE AND WHEN
AND I'LL SEE YOU THERE.
IF I NEVER DID IT, I WILL WING IT
IF I AM SCARED TO DEATH, I WILL PRETEND TO BE BRAVE
IF THERE IS A SCENIC ROUTE, WE'LL TAKE IT
IF I DON'T KNOW MY WAY, I WILL FIND IT
IF IT'S A DAY OF FUN, I WON'T MISS IT!
Duude.......Where's my Paddle??
This is my little piece of the net...welcome to it!!!
Melissa...known to most as Missy. Her friends refer to her as Dora (as in the explorer). She grew up in a small town and will always be drawn to those small town ways. The one stop sign, a lesser fear of the law because the law is never around, finding your own things to do because there sure wasn't much around. She spent hours upon hours riding bike, digging for fossils, wandering around the countryside in search of natural beauty. She has worked hard for everything she has, nothing was ever given. That is a fact she holds dear to her heart.
Today she has turned into a life loving adventurous soul. Dropping at a dime to take a quick trip to the islands or hopping in the jeep for a long drive aka safari tour. She loves being in groups of friends or is just as comfortable hanging out alone. By hanging out alone, I mean traveling alone, eating out alone, exploring alone…it’s all good. Spend time by yourself, reconnect with your soul at times, it’s a great thing! Don’t dare her to jump in the pond as you walk by…because she probably will and somehow finds a way to talk you into thinking it’s a good idea for you as well. Life is short…make every moment count…make memories…loosen up and laugh and get wet, get muddy, drive home soaked and freezing, do something crazy, be different…be yourself.
She has a very soulful side which likes to talk for hours to debate and explore life, its meaning, our purpose, what lies ahead, etc…there is not much better than a good conversation on all the aspects of life.
Never the city girl, pavements and obnoxious people make her cringe. Give her a scenic natural view, an old dirt road with miles of nothing and she is content. There is much joy in kayaking, hiking, biking, boogie boarding, etc…that she’ll never need fancy city restaurants and parties to fulfill her. Backyard BBQ’s, friends, adventures, jeep rides, last minute trips, God…they fulfill her.
God has blessed her, and she is thankful.
SOMETIMES INSPIRATIONS COME IN THE SMALLEST PACKAGES. BE SURE TO PRAY FOR RYLANS SPEEDY AND FULL RECOVERY...THANKS.
The most important part of life...is to look at the blessings you DO have rather than those you don't.
It was my life and it was fun
Another season of my life is done
Another race I'm glad I got to run
Another chapter of my life its over
No I'm never gonna feel like that again
Times rushin by me like the wind
Never be as young as I was then
No I'm never gonna feel like that again
Life is an endless adventure.
May I live each day to have no regrets,
no missed opportunities. I wanna feel
the wind blow in my face as i stand looking
down from a mountain top, feel enlightened
as I stare up at Aurora Borealis,be part
of the harsh reality of the Antarctic
and the simple coastal breeze of each island
in the Caribbean. May I one day find myself
swimming along the Great Barrier Reef and
yet another day holding a newborn baby. With
each breath, I want to LIVE.
I believe God is everything...
Everything that is or ever was or ever will be.
And when you can feel that,
and be happy to feel that, you've found it...
My first step from the old white man was trees.
Then air. Then birds. Then other people.
But one day when I was sitting quiet
and feeling like a motherless child,
which I was, it came to me:
that feeling of being part of everything,
not seperate at all.
I knew that if I cut a tree,
my arm would bleed.
And I laughed and I cried
and I ran all round the house.
I knew just what it was.
In fact, when it happens,
you can't miss it.
---- Alice Walker
The video above is one of my FAVORITE Gary Allan songs! I had to add the lyrics below...pretty much gets it right on the money!!
Artist: Allan Gary
Song: Like It's A Bad Thing
Album: Living Hard
They say I drive a little fast
Say I like to push the limit
Everyday I'm living like it was my last
They say Im proud of my scars
Each one tells a story
Got guts and glory down to an art
Say I know whats its like
To see life pass right before my eyes
Like it's a bad thing.
I dont know about you but I was put here to live and love
So what if I dont do it like everybody else does
I'm out on the edge, I'm too willing to risk
Every bone, every breath, they say all I am is a crazy dream
Like it's a bad thing.
So my heart's been broke
So I keep on falling
Im nothing but all in when I let go
I wear it on my sleeve
Yeah, they call me a fool cause I still believe
Like it's a bad thing.
I dont know about you but I was put here to live and love
So what if I dont do it like everybody else does
I'm out on the edge, I'm too willing to risk
Every bone, every breath, they say, all I am is a crazy dream
Like it's a bad thing.
I dont know about you but I was put here to live and love
So what if I dont do it like everybody else does
I'm out on the edge, I'm too willing to risk
Every bone, every breath, they say, all I am is a crazy dream
Like it's a bad thing.
Like it's a bad thing.
