Back to Spunk!

Been occupied with some issues lately, but things are returning to normal.

(Whatever normal is - I've never thought I led a normal life!)

That said, hitting the road again tomorrow, which I love! And taking a friend this time, too.

Back to spunkin'!!

What is normal?
What is home?
What are cows!???

February 1st!

It's February 1st. 2006.

(Still having a hard time saying that!)

And I believe it's a good time for some changes. Everyone always picks January 1st, but why not February 1st?

So I'll take time today to set some goals for the year that will propel my life forward.

Because what good is it to be stuck in limbo?

Truth

Sometimes, the truth can really hurt.

To know that you have poured so much love & effort into someone, and all for naught ...

To have loved and lost is one thing - love without acknowledgement is another.

That truth hurts, however, I will not cease to give or give up on others. My capacity for love far outweighs the negative. I still believe in people. And I still believe love can make a difference.

"I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you ..."

In the zone

Nothing like being in the zone when you're going after a goal. Vision is clear, focus is sharp, and you live and breath your pursuit. What was once a challenge becomes comfortable and easy.

Which is why distractions are so frustrating. You want to stay focused and not be bothered. Some distractions are necessary and must be dealt with, but some are just the forces of evil trying to get in your way.

That is where discipline and the ability to know the difference comes into play. And so many people lack discipline - they simply become distracted and never return to the pursuit of their dream. Once out of the zone, they rarely return. Small things distract them from the future.

Discipline is choosing what you want for your future over what you want now.
