dreaming the impossible

be young! live free! laugh hard! play with abandon! do all this please!!!

Now don't think me a modern day peter pan, I'm far from it. I've embraced my adulthood with vigor and am living life as purposefully as I can. I pay my bills, I try and answer the phone by the third ring, and I attempt to make wise investments with both my time and money. All that being said, I also strive to dream the impossible, play with abandon, think young (think, stay idealistic) and learn lessons I've forgotten by watching my sons.

I'm not saying do one of these more than the other, I'm saying "just do". Do them all. Practice them daily. There's two sides to many things. Our brain, our money, our views, our philosophies. Yin and Yang, light and dark, analytical and creative, and the list goes on... Whatever your natural bent is, practice the other, as if your life depends on it. I believe if you do, your life will be more full for it.

The pictures of me below are taken by my oldest boy ,of three years, Asher. The idea of giving him my camera was just a touch daunting, however, he did go with me on a photo shoot, and was obviously looking forward to the experience, so I couldn't disappoint. :) And so with my hands over his, and letting him push the buttons, I posed a few funny faces that I knew would make him laugh, giving him a good memory with him and his dad.
