sunny, crisp days

winter and fall are my favorite times of the year!  right now it is incredible to be out playing in the mountains....fresh fluffy snow, clear skies and reasonably warm weather.  you can take a slightly cold bike ride in the morning and by afternoon throw on the skis and get some fresh air up at the nordic center.

when i'm out there and moving and laughing, i can not help but to feel totally alive and grateful!  i am so lucky to get to live here in the mountains and to be healthy.....i would recommend everyone to go outside today and take a walk, get the skis out, take a bike ride or have lunch with a friend and just enjoy taking it all in..

here is one of my favorite quotes to sum up my day and my ideals......

when you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bounds:  your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world.  dormant  forces, facilities and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be....patanjali

i truly believe in this......we should always allow ourselves to daydream and to follow what we find exciting and makes us happy.  you never know until you get out and try!   if nothing else, our happiness and good energy is infectious and  can make a positive impact on others around us.
