Christmas

The joys of family are to immense to count. On my wife's and I first Christmas, together as a married couple, and away from family, we found out how tough it is to be away from family. We did our best to mix and match the different family traditions and make our own, but it is definitely tough being out on your own. We both have missed our family, but let me tell you a great way to get a little fix. SKYPE! What a great use of technology, keeping families together via video chatting for free! Looking for gift idea's try a video camera to skype with family members! That is a great way to get a little of the family joys for the holidays when you can not be with your love ones! Love you family!

Travel

Today I am on the road for work. Lately I have been having to make several trips to the company headquarters. The trip is typically a long boring and not the most enjoyable parts of my job. Today I was very impressed and their ability that allowed me to help enjoy the small things in life.

My coworker was talking about how much he loves coaching on his sons basketball team. Typically a job a lot of parents do not want to do, just if solely the fact they are so busy already. My coworker talks about the joy of seeing the kids enjoy learning how to play basketball and his son is really excited that he is doing it. Besides the kids he explained there is just something about being in the gym that he just really loves.

As I see it, he has it right. If we can all be spending a little time doing something that we love and at the same time can be doing something to give back to the world. Not all of us can coach sports but maybe cook food for others, and build something, or just be there to talk with someone. No matter what you enjoy doing, find some way to do those things in all aspects of your life!

Hi All,


Thanks for stopping by and taking a look. I felt that recently in my heart to write a blog about the worlds many joys and how it is the simple things that I enjoy in my life. With all the trials that we all face in our day to day journeys I feel that it is important to love what we are doing and enjoy the simple blessings.


I look forward to sharing the thoughts from my heart.
