Balance of Life

Today is the first full day of a journey/vacation. We may be gone for 3 weeks+, depending on how we feel as we travel through Central and Northern California on to Northern Oregon, and then returning by way of the Pacific Coast … My wife is a bit anxious and I’m a bit eager. For cross country purposes, this trip will be our "dry run." If we do well, next year we’ll go across the country from L.A. to N.Y.

I’ve always believed that over a life time, there is a balance of life. But, at any one time, there is a focus on that which you’re doing, not a balance. Today, and for the next few weeks, I’m going to test out whether I can focus on relaxing, "smelling the roses," and appreciating the beauty of our surroundings. Being me, of course, it’s not likely that I will do no work. In fact, I’ve brought material with me. But I hope to do a fair amount of reading and learning en route. To me, that’s balance. In fact, that’s the basis of our trailer license, STESPOT.
