This weekend I went out of town.  It was great.  I attended some f2f meeting, that were amazing.  Pretty neat people there.  When I came back the next night, they greeted me as if I had always been there, like apart of a close family.  Many, many oldtimers.

I went on a hike I would have never considered.  It was 19 degree and freezing rain.  I quit complaining when my legs went numb.  lol  I would have never have experienced this had I not been so closed minded in the past.  I didn't want to leave or even find warmth.  I would have never have gotten to see a water fall with have of it frozen in mid air from what it looked like.  I would have never of seen nature in the winter time period.  It was really amazing.

I just had a blast this weekend and it was so peaceful.  I would have never pictured myself for some nature loving, (hearts and flowers) over how beautiful life is....and what I take for granted.  EVER.  I am the type that takes a drive because I just feel like driving......never would it occur to me to look out the window instead of the road infront of me and see what I am missing.

I woke up this morning and prayed before I got out of bed.  I turned peppy music on, made coffee, and then made my bed and said all my "thank you's" to my HP.

I just wanted to share that....and no that doesn't mean I need a hug!  Just a smile will do.
