Moving Forward

We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Encouragement

Today  I encourage you to observe your surroundings taking care to experience at least one new thing. We need to learn more,  explore more, see more and do more to fully enjoy the simple experience of being human. We are not only caregivers, mothers and fathers, but we are individuals and are naturally drawn to things we have not seen, touched or heard.

  1. Great idea! There’s actually a lot that can be done in 15 minutes! And saves your sanity in the long run. Now if only I can convince my husband to give me rewards…. 😉
