I enjoy my coffee black and my whiskey clean. I believe in responding versus reacting. Walking in reflection. The scent of wood, book stores, crayons and the ocean. Silence over noise. Process over content and heart over anything else. Wind, not air conditioning. Laugh lines, deep conversation, boots and t-shirts versus a suit and tie, multi-colored socks versus white ones. Dim bars and long counters. Barbells over TV. I believe that you have to practice love daily and remind yourself to give more than you take. Recognize your own gifts, accept your story and breathe fire. I also believe we have to learn when to be blades of grass and when to be tree trunks in stormy winds. We have to learn to bend and adapt when necessary...
Appreciate the small lines on her skin- they are art. Breathe her scent in and find her smile so that you can call upon it when she needs it. Spirituality is not about religion....but what moves you...what moves in you. Passion is not just a past time, it is a calling. It is a drive. Push yourself through pain and discomfort. Do not be comfortable. Grow. Grow. Grow. Shatter your expectations and create new ones to shatter in their place. Be vulnerable. Be wrong. Be surprised. Sweat more.
...oh and eat more donuts.
