Why is this happening FOR me?

mary-oliver-posterPlease excuse the hiatus in the blog. I’ve been on vacation with family on the coast of Maine, living each moment to the fullest and dissing some of my regular day-to-day responsibilities. (I know, tough gig!) Time got away from me as one fun day rolled into the next.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the concept of time lately. Have you ever thought about how much of our lives we spend wishing time away? Waiting for that next big event or thing to happen.

Living in the moment…

Maine sunset Oct. 2013…and appreciating every minute of it!

I had to share this photo of one of the most spectacular sunsets I have ever seen in Maine – or anywhere. This week has been about learning to love, appreciate and live fully present in the moment, each and every moment. It’s all we have. And all I can say is WOW. Each time I do this and am able to just “be”, I am in awe. Are you living in the moment today?
