Some people live in a dream world and others only seem to face reality. Then there are those who turn one into the other.

Our inward power, when it obeys nature, reacts to events by accommodating itself to what it faces – to what is possible. It needs no specific material. It pursues its own aims as circumstances allow; it turns obstacles into fuel. As a fire overwhelms what would have quenched a lamp. What’s thrown on top of the conflagration is absorbed, consumed by it – and makes it burn still higher.  - Marcus Aurelius

That summer feeling. Warmth, stories, vacation, smores, and the late night campfire smell. Gotta love life. Appreciate the small things.  Be present, aware, and grateful each day. Keep on moving, but don’t forget to appreciate. =)

“Our life is an apprenticeship to the truth that around every circle another can be drawn; that there is no end in nature, but every end is a beginning, and under every deep a lower deep opens.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass under the trees on a spring day, listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is by no means a waste of time.” – Sir Lubbock
