There are many roads, many choices. Hypothetically, you want to get past this field and head towards the far off mountain. Which path do you decide upon?

Bird On A Winter Beach
I love winter at the ocean. Yes, it can be cold and windy, but the beach is empty and ours for just a little while. Except for the birds who love it all year round. This little guy was chilling out by the waves (almost looks like he’s napping), and then showed off his amazing flying skills to the camera.
Wherever you are on this Monday morning, breathe deeply of the air around you, see what beauty you can find, and smile. Because we can. Isn’t life an amazing thing? 🙂 Slainte, Lisa
Thankfulness Through the Mist
Sometimes the way is foggy and it is difficult to see where your feet are headed. Stones cause ankles to turn and progress is limited as you slip slightly backwards on the scree. But finally, you are there. At the top. The view is misty and slightly hazy, but you see it…the lake, the green in the distance, the view of the amazing mountains. You are thankful, you are satisfied, and no amount of mist will stop that from happening.
No matter what mountain you are climbing today and tomorrow, walk on. You may slip some, but you will make it. And the One who made you will bless you and keep you all along the journey. Who knows what wonders you will discover at the top? Be blessed; I am truly thankful for each of you. Lisa
Exploring
One of the cool things about kids is the way they explore a new place. They don’t just casually stroll, commenting wisely on the architecture and historical significance; they crawl, climb, touch, jump, and experience. 
Always fun (and slightly exhausting! 🙂 ) to watch. And always a prod for me to see and touch and experience more right along with them. Today I’m going to try to find at least one new thing to explore! Blessings to all of you, Lisa
Adventures Await
Another weekend is upon us. The weekend before Thanksgiving, no less! The question is….will I succumb to the frantic running about that seems to be inherent to this time of year, or will I try really hard to just breathe, and look at the sky, do what needs doing but no more, and enjoy the beauty and adventure of the day? As a wife and mom, I definitely feel the pressure of “Oh no, I have done NO Christmas shopping yet!” and “I really must get ready for the Thanksgiving car trip to family’s home”. But there is another side of me this year that is resisting…a side that just wants to enjoy what’s right here, right now and not worry so much about what’s way ahead of me. Because I feel that I’m missing so much of the now. So right NOW I’m going to look at this picture for awhile, the sea, the rocks, the look of “what am I going to do first” on my children’s faces as they go down the ramp to the beach. And then, well, who knows? I will see what the day brings. Enjoy every single adventure that your weekend holds for you. Blessings, Lisa
