6 years ago today... 10/17

Another year,
and what it means to me is another confirmation
that this wonderful couple
 are the best ever.  They have figured out that taking care of each other goes along way in making a happy life for this sweet boy.  This was their anniversary weekend.  I am so excited that we got to share these moments with them and their sweet precious little boy.
Jackson is so blessed to have them as his parents.
Happy Anniversary to the Williamson's with heartfelt love.
You sure do add lots of laughter and fun to our lives on Pebble Brook Lane.

"Into the Wild" Chris McCandless

Seen the movie and read the book.
One quote really stood out.  i had to go back and find it to remind myself that i had to really think about this.
Unlike Muir and Thoreau, McCandless went in the the wilderness not primarily to ponder nature or the world at large but, rather: to explore the inner country of his own soul.  He soon discovered, however, what Muir and Thoreau already knew: An extended stay in the wilderness inevitable directs one's attention outward as much as inward, and it is impossible to live off the land without developing both a subtle understanding of, and a strong emotional bond with, that land and all it holds.
He graduated from Emory in 1990. He was an extremely intense young man and possessed a streak of stubborn idealism that did not mesh readily with modern existence.  He spent 16 weeks in a bus in Alaska.  I was very moved by this story.

Inhale Fall

I can't I repeat Can't explain how much i love this fall weather
But i will try:
I love that to everything there is a season and a promise of Newness
I love that the color of the sky and clouds is robin blue
I love that the crispness as i run/walk remind of the season change
I love the smells
I love the windows being open all the time and the feel of cool
I love that family and friends gather, even if its to watch football
I love that i get to change my scents from Bath and Body works
I love that things take on a newness and awareness
I love the festivals and the color orange
I love life and living in the moment and being thankful for all that is!!!
