A beautiful start to the day. A new day. What will you do to find joy today?? Sunrise is one of my joy triggers. A reminder that each day is a new beginning and that there is much beauty in the world and in the ordinary.

What are you grateful for today?? For me it's the warmth of the sunshine, a chat with a friend and the evening quiet with the dishwasher running and silly teenage boy stories from the school day! #thankfulthursday #sunrise #sunrise_and_sunsets #lifeisgood #lifeisgoodatthebeach #shared_joy

Be slow to speak, and only after having first listened quietly, so that you may understand the meaning, leaning, and wishes of those who speak. This you will better know when to speak and when to be silent. -Saint Agnatius

Stepping out of my comfort zone. Adventure. The Peak Potential dinner three weeks ago was one of my favorites. We were privileged to hear Michele, a 3rd grade teacher at our elementary school share her thoughts and observations on what the 3rd grade students take away from Randy's annual presentation. She shared how the teachers use these 'take aways' to help the students dig deep to overcome barriers and solve problems. She talked about the 'take aways' for the staff as well. One teacher stopped procrastinating and registered that afternoon for a marathon. Michele dug deep in facing her fear of public speaking. After all, 20+ 3rd graders is very different than 200+ adults. Her presentation was eloquent and touched my heart. Randy took his too few minutes to share with the ever growing Peak Potential community the many challenges he has faced as well as the accomplishments achieved over the course of the past 7 years with 2020 VisionQuest. Sharing how the 6+ hour marathon and the presenting health issues proved to be a greater accomplishment than the marathon completed in 3+ hours. Listening to or talking with Randy is always inspiring. So what's on my mind....during dinner my brother let me know of an upcoming triathlon. When I was in my 20's and plenty fit I was often intrigued and thought of doing one. However, the distances to complete seemed quite lofty. I found myself wondering why I couldn't bring myself to commit to this challenge. After all the distances are reasonable. I spent some time pondering this. Commitment, fear of failure seemed to be the barriers. My thought process. So I challenged my thought process and recognized that I have the supports to help me solve around other barriers that may arise. I will take the challenge and do this triathlon. I encourage you to step up to the challenges. Find the adventure.

This morning's sunrise required patience, perseverance and problem solving. Thank goodness I didn't head out at the last minute. Stopping at my usual spots there was a big barge right smack where the sun would rise. So I headed north, and kept heading north until I landed at Jenness Beach where the sunrise was great and the beach combing wonderful! #sunrise #seacoastnh #sunrise_and_sunsets #saturdaysunrise #saturdaymorningroutines #coastalliving #lifeisgoodatthebeach #igersnh_seacoast #igersnh #jennessbeach (at Jenness Beach State Park)
