Happy Columbus Day! As it’s a federal holiday, United States Postal Service workers got a day off, so Steve & I went on a 7-mile hike on the Ice Age Trail around Holy Hill. The air was crisp and sunny; the leaves were resplendent, and I couldn’t have been happier to be outside with my favorite trail partner. We’ve missed this in our recent life and are making plans to change our lifestyle so that slow walks in nature are given priority again. We talked about the process of awareness and making decisions. We can do better. This is an infinite process, but it’s not about the results; it’s about the journey. The climb. The progressiveness. “Pointing the canoe” and paddling toward your values – like integrity. I am dedicated to giving it my best shot. And here’s my favorite of the day – very fitting for the theme, I think:

That’s a steep old stair……paddling might not be quite the best or easiest way to climb it, but ….if you really set your mind to it I reckon you’ll do it…..
I’m rooting for you.
🙂
In a downpour, I might be able to propel myself upwards like a salmon, even without paddles!
