Memorize This Feeling

Today many of us are returning to our normal routines after having been on vacation for a week or so. Whether you stayed at home or left town on vacation, you are hopefully feeling:

Relaxed and rejuvenated

Organized

Optimistic

Motivated, and

Ready to Shine in this new year.

Memorize that feeling.  You will want to recall it in a few months when the rigors of daily life leave you feeling like you need a vacation. Welcome back.

Shining off until... 

Catch of the Day

Yesterday my family and I were at a beach front restaurant in Islamorada.

We watched a crowd gathering in the distance and out of curiousity moved closer to see what's going on.

It turned out to be group of professional fishing guides participanting in a Cast Net Throwing Tournament.

Professional fishing guides.

Cast net throwing.

Two things I knew so little about that, until yesterday, I had little idea either one could be a formalized sport.

Consider it proof that there is plenty of room for each of us to light up our corner of the world by shining at something.

Shining off until...

Fresh Start

Today is the first day of a whole new year.

A clean canvas.

A hopeful beginning to the life you have dreamed of living.

Three hundred sixty five days of pure potential.

And countless opportunities to Shine.

How will you spend yours?
