However, my phobia of flying was too much for me this time. I got on the plane...and in a not so calm manner, promptly got off the plane.
So I went to the zoo. I love the zoo.
My favorite shots!

Oh well.
I was very much looking forward to a trip out to Zion National Park.
However, my phobia of flying was too much for me this time. I got on the plane...and in a not so calm manner, promptly got off the plane.

My favorite shots!
These animals are majestic.

Taking a moment
Today I felt the stirring to take a picture of something beautiful. Usually when I set out with a this kind of goal I'm disappointed.
Not today.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.- Mark Twain
I took these pictures at the Harbor in Rockwall. There was beauty and happiness and wonder. Too much to take in.
Not today.
The lighthouse called out to me. I love lighthouses. This picture reminded me of one of my favorite quotes. I need to revisit it's meaning and apply it to my life. Do you?
I took these pictures at the Harbor in Rockwall. There was beauty and happiness and wonder. Too much to take in.
So I just watched, and took pictures.
And reflected about the things I want but can't have while watching the sun go down.
I thought a lot about what I hope for in life...and what is meaningful to me.
I took a moment to breathe.
Nothing compares..
I heard this song while I was driving today. It always moves me. Talk about OLD SCHOOL!

Just me
The first time I ever saw the movie Forrest Gump I was too young to understand why he started running and couldn't stop.
I get it now.
Distraught, confused, heartbroken, restless, angry, dismayed. So he ran and ran and ran and ran.
I want to run. I want to pull all my hair out. I want to throw myself on the floor like a child who didn't get that .99 cent toy in the checkout line. I want to give up. I want to quit. I want to shut down.
But I won't do it this time. I quit once before but I'm better and stronger now. I will make it.
I am no longer living this life to please anyone else. I've spent my entire life trying to make everyone happy. It's my turn. All my energy goes to me. Call me selfish, but it's MY time.
There is no room in my life right now for insincerity, games, drama, and other people's angst.
It's all about me now. Take it or leave it.
TAWANDAAAAAAA!!! (What movie is THIS from???)
