Evening at Arrington

25 minutes south of Nashville is Arrington Vineyards. It's a baby (only 5 years old), but it's lovely. I'll be going back. For sure.

"To become great, you need to be involved in something bigger than yourself"

I don't know who said that, but of late this thought has been marinating in me.

In the past two months I have had the pleasure of meeting, talking and listening to the most incredible people. Normal, everyday people like you and me. People who are inspiring and making a difference in other peoples lives by sharing MonaVie and the opportunity.

This is big. And I am so excited to be involved in it.

The best thing I've read today...

traceyclark - i am enough a self-kindness collaborative.

A thought provoking and wonderful project.

My heart is filled with admiration.

Observation:

Married men like me. At least the ones that want a little something.

I must feel (or look) safe. Or because I'm unassuming, they assume that I am willing to cross the moral line. It's too bad really, except for that quality, they would probably be pretty cool.

Or, maybe they are the same way to all women.

So what if you don't have it yet.
It's coming. You're gonna get it. You're gonna love it. And then you're gonna forget there was ever a time when you didn't have it.

The best thing I read today...

"nothing we do or encounter should trouble our attitudes. we're trying to help people every day. what could possibly be hard about that? indeed, it's a noble calling! people either want help or they don't. no fault whatsoever in that. we simply look for those that want help. and when preparation meets opportunity, magical things can happen - for everyone."

And so it begins...

an exercise in self.

• exploration
• examination
• expression

A place to throw my thoughts and to file things that I love.

A place to remind me to aspire.
