Each day is an adventure



While in Hawaii we had the opportunity to ride this quad through the jungle, over the lava and then on to the sand.  We spent hours exploring the small piece of shoreline making up this beautiful Island, and what a thrill it was!  Charlie loves finding new places and exploring paths less traveled, so this was a dream come true for him.  Thinking back on this experience it struck me that we should live each of our days eager to explore every path we find.  Don't allow the bumpy road you might have to go over to detour or stop us.  With enthusiasm seek to find the hidden treasures waiting to be found.  Charlie actually found a large glass float while we were out there!  Instead of seeing each day as one that will be the same as the last, determine to turn each morning into the beginning of a 24 hour adventure that holds nothing but opportunity!
Enjoy your journey!
