The Worlds a Playground



People in the world today are so worried about their day to day schedules that they are to afraid to adventure.

And they don’t quite understand all they are missing out on just by opening their window, looking up at the sky, and following their dreams.

The worlds a playground ready to be played with and enjoyed.

Its time we discover. To transcend into the world of the unknown.

Why follow on the trails of others? Mark your own. Take a chance. Don’t be afraid to mess up.

Why read about the adventures of the world? Go write your own! There is so much to see and do even in your own back yard.

This life was meant to be enjoyed. Boundaries need to be crossed. How will you know you can do the monkey bars until you try?

Where do I find peace?



I love sunsets. Some could say I’m obsessed. But how glorious it is even in the bitter of winter. And as you watch that sun set, as you see all the colors hit every corner of the sky and feel the warmth penetrate deep into your soul you realize it’s the most beautiful thing in the world.

And the moment the last ray of sun disappears behind the mountains, leaving sparkling diamonds in the sky, you are always left with a sense of peace and awe at what you barely witnessed.

It leaves you wishing everyone could have seen and felt that same sunset. Same sense of peace in their lives.

But not many look.

The suns always shinning. Not many people notice it though. There is always peace to be found out there. But not many look. They keep themselves in the shadows, filling themselves with discouragement, frustration, and anger.

I found a quote once that says, “keep your face in the sunshine and all the shadows will fall behind.”

What does the sunshine represent?

For me it’s the light of Christ. It’s my family. It’s when I’m doing what needs to be done. Its peace.

We all need to find our own sense of peace.

And, as that sun hides away behind the mountains, you know that if you look, tomorrow it will be here again, shinning brightly as ever.

Back to Simplicity

Everyday we are  running, rushing, trying to get everything done that can't possibly be completed in a normal day. maybe superman could. but, to bad I'm just me. Trying to find my way to sunshine in a world of rain. But, sometimes you just got to learn to dance in it.

I have learned that sometimes we just need to go back to the basics. Start again. everyday I have to remind myself to just sit, think, smell the roses and listen. Thats where inspiration and learning comes from.

It's time to stop ourselves and remember. Remember why we are even here. Remember the plan. Remember Our goals. Remember who we really are.

How long will it take us to do this one simple thing for ourselves?

well, your the one to start
