“The trouble is you think you have time.” –Buddha

Time. It can’t be touched or bought. We have no control over it’s speed. Everyone wants more of it, even though we wish it away. We’re in a rush to grow up, we’re in a hurry to get get things done, and sometimes we lose sight of how important the people in our lives are. We want to fast forward the bad, rewind the good, and pause the extraordinary. 

Boat Daze on the Bay

Being on the water is relaxing and therapeutic. Heading home to the beach and being out on the bay is so peaceful. Seeing nothing but water and the horizon allows you to clear your mind and re-focus on what’s important. Feeling the sun on your face while a breeze fans your body is heaven. It’s refreshing to put away your phone and do nothing but enjoy each other’s company and drink cold beers. We drifted for hours and soaked up rays on the front of the boat. It’s good to getaway from the real world and relax for a while. Make time for yourself, take time to unwind, and most importantly spend time with those you love. 

Frightened

As a child I was afraid of many things. My parents took me to Disney and I ran away from smiling Minnie Mouse after waiting in line for an hour. I was afraid of the dark, ghosts, and probably my own shadow.

Now, I’m a twenty something who should not be afraid of anything anymore, right? I’m still not a fan of being home alone, and things that go bump in the night still make me cringe. Last night around 12am I was down in the basement switching over some laundry when a gust of wind hit the window and made a howling noise. I think my heart dropped into my stomach. It sounded as though someone had knocked on the window and I booked it upstairs. Basically I was out of breath by the time I reached my bedroom. It was nothing, just me, over reacting. It’s funny the way our body reacts when we think we’re in danger, or when we’re scared. It’s not just a mental reaction but physical as well. Our gut tells us to run, get out of there, and we feel nauseous and uneasy.

I think that’s why they always say to trust your gut. To go with your initial reactions, and trust your intuition. We need to trust our instincts, even if it sends you sprinting up the stairs in your own house. 🙂
