Reading this inspired me to pick up my guitar and practise today even though I'm feeling tired. I'll never be a genius on guitar, that's not why I'm learning it. But something magic happens every time I practise. Everything is aligned in me, my spirit, mind, body... Everything. Thank you for taking the time to write something deep and put something thoughtful and positive out into the world. We need it!
This post made me smile inside and out. Thank you so much for sharing this with me today Colin 🫶🏻
Love the quote attributed to the beautiful, sadly departed, Dolly Parton 🦋 ✨ I read it in her voice ✨
As for moments of awe, I took it upon myself to notice these things a lot more after my illness a couple of years ago. Living where we do, I often see some of the most beautiful sunsets and always stop to admire them.
Life isn’t a race and let’s face it, who would want to win anyway… knowing what happens at the end!
Thanks for the kind words, Shelly. I often have to remind myself to stop and slow down. Sometimes I’ve felt like I’ve gone ages without doing that. Sorry to hear about your illness, but I guess it’s good it’s given you some additional perspective.
Really glad you liked it! Not all my essays are quite so philosophical, but I think they all have a similar vein.

Thank you so much! That’s the nicest feedback I’ve ever gotten on my writing. Glad you found it encouraging!
From vaccines to philosophy, Dolly Parton is a sage. Also, really like the pics in this one.
Haha yeah it’s a good quote! I’m glad some of the photos turned out because I wasn’t planning to take good shots for an article. Thanks!

“Don’t be so focused on making a living that you forget to make a life.”
Word!!!
Life happens so fast, you know. You've got to be intentional about it if you want to live a fulfilled life.
