Recharged and Renewed

It's funny how life gets in the way and prevents us from actually living. Nowadays we are all so busy doing something that we never seem to have time to do anything. So many commitments, expectations, aggravations... how did life get so complicated?

I've finally realized that when everything is gloomy and the world seems to be closing in...
And the weight of all your worries seems to be crashing down on you...
You have to dig deep and find the strength to break free...
Take some time to get away, relax, unplug and enjoy some peace and quiet...
Remember that it's ok to slow down. It's ok to stop and smell the roses...
Soon, you'll realize just how insignificant your problems and worries really are...
Only then will you have the freedom to release yourself from your troubles...
And marvel at life and the amazing world around you...
After five years of planning, we took a much needed vacation... a two week cruise tour in Alaska. Five days on land followed by a seven day cruise.

If you have never been to Alaska, add it to your bucket list because you will not be disappointed. It is a nature lovers dreams. It truly was the trip of a lifetime.
