Michelle and I took off for a good friend’s wedding in Colorado; so we decided to make a quick vacation out of it, as well. I won’t go into the flight, hotel, etc., mishaps; but let’s just say, I am not a fan of Orbitz and Frontier isn’t far from the front of the line to be pushed over a cliff, as well.
Now, that I got that out of the way! Colorado is about as beautiful as it comes. In the video above, we were in Garden of the Gods; and, man, did someone come up with the right name! It is beautiful here!
Sometimes you just need to relax, soak up some vitamin D, and enjoy nature! Nature actually has a calming and healing effect on people. If you look really hard at the photo below, you can see a little cricket sitting on the flower. I didn’t see him until I got home. There is so much going on in our world that we miss. Slowing down and making time for yourself is key!
I am a big supporter of meditation; and if you don’t, start giving yourself five minutes out of your day to just smell the flowers! I mean it, focus on something simple and just breath. You would be surprised what it does to your stress levels.
I will leave you with this one thought. Oh, and if you get a chance to go check out Garden of the Gods, don’t miss it!
Final thought!
Life is full of so many things we will never understand. However, death is not one of them. We know we will all die one day. If someone had told you the day you were born that you were dying, do you think you would have done more with your life? Because… It’s true.
