Nature, Peace, and Quiet

We've spent this weekend in the hills of Central Massachusettes with friends and it really emphasizes the quality of life in the country. A large house in a remote setting can be extremely relaxing and comfortable for sharing time with friends and enjoying the quiet life.

Although having a large house is not a major goal of mine or ours, the ease of sharing with friends and having visits stay for the weekend when you have a large house makes for great times. I can certainly see why the "elite socialites" had estates that could host a sizable party. My idea of an enjoyable time though is quiet and comfortable with a handful of good friends.

That's all for now, so enjoy the week and work hard to play hard!

So Many Things To Share

Life. It's about sharing.

I believe that humans are social beings. I believe people are always consistent. I believe that we can all make a difference through sharing and that contribution can be as powerful as the invention of a new technology or as inspiring as a theatrical performance or grand piece of art.

To this point, I would like to share with friends and family the many experiences and enjoyable morsels that are life to me. I hope that this will encourage many opportunities to share among us.

Here's to life, liberty, and happiness! And that you take a moment each day to relish it.
