Grateful for 'J'ourneys

J is for joy-filled journeys

We are adventurers and love to get out and go whenever we can. I am grateful for the opportunities big and small, literal and figurative. It's on these journeys that we grow and dream and gain perspective.

Traveling as a family is high on our list of musts. We value discovering new places, people, food and nature together. And also the way we pull in and operate as a totally dependent unit. We're pretty tight around the homestead but traveling bonds us even more and I am grateful for those moments of being together in a place other than our home. We've had good, bad and ugly and the memories we make and cherish most always include simple times on our path to....

And, of course, I do love wondering what might be around the bend.

You?

Good one for J! I LOVE that photo. I want it framed and hanging in my office. Can you do that for me?

I will submit another "J" idea: Jack. A person who always has an encouraging word to share. A person who goes out of his way to nurture every soul he encounters. A person who starts each morning by jumping out of bed and shouting, "World, I'm ready to let my positivity shine through today!"

Jokes,my family has always been great joke tellers ( or story tellers). Not anyone can pull it off. My Dad's side of the family cracks me up to no end, with there wit and humor. I am thankful for a good laugh that follows the a good joke.
