Why Today Rocked!!!

Alright, so I tried really hard to make this a video post buuuut was terribly unsuccessful. I'm still going to share with you why today rocked.

  1. The weather was awesome! I don't know what it was like else where, but here in Appleton WI it was sunny and mid 40s. Perfect running weather!
  2. Starbucks has the greatest coffee of the day right now. It's called "Tribute Blend" and it freaking rocks. I'm a huge coffee drinker so a good cup of coffee is a great way for me to start off the day.
  3. It's almost the weekend! Who doesn't love love the weekend? 
  4. The challenges of the day. Today was ridiculously challenging. First it took me a good hour to get secure enough to start taping myself talking. Then it took another good hour or so to say the things I was trying to say the right way. Finally it took 2 hours for me to try and post the video before I had to accept defeat. Still, on the positive side I am now good to go with videoing myself talking! Hopefully this will come in handy as I become more blog savvy.
  5. Today was my day off! Even though it was my day off, I still spent time in the office working on LIVE Life stuff. I loved every second of it! 
These are just a few reasons why today rocked. The things on this list are pretty simple, but that's life! So now it's your turn. Why did today rock for you?! Please comment below and share. It can be just one thing it can be 10+! Also one last thing, make sure to subscribe if you haven't and follow us on twitter!!!

Just like Harry, You Don't Have to Journey Alone

With the anticipation of the final Harry Potter movie coming out, I figured it would only be right that I took a second to relate Harry Potter to all of us. I'm proud to say that I've read all of the books multiple times, and the most obvious lesson to me throughout the whole series is the importance of allowing our friends to help us with our life journey. This couldn't be clearer than in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows." By the way, have no fear, there are only a few small spoilers. We all have our life journey that we are meandering through. Some moments are all sunshine and rainbows, some are dull and uneventful, while others are full of trials which require friends to help us get through. As I was reading Deathly Hallows, I was struck by how Harry acts as he is carrying the locket. His best friends are there with him, yet he feels so lonely, mainly because of the power of the locket horcrux. Similarly, perhaps you can think of a time when it felt like...

Gam Zeh Ya'avor (This Too Shall Pass)

While at WASC Leadership Camp last week, I encountered ancient words of wisdom several times. Those ancient words were a simple phrase, "This Too Shall Pass." My curiosity was sparked, so I googled the phrase and found out that there is a very old story that goes with the phrase. After reading the story I felt like it was only right to share it with you all. This Too Shall Pass Once a king called upon all of his wise men and asked them, ”Is there a mantra or suggestion which works in every situation, in every circumstance, in every place and in every time. In every joy, every sorrow, every defeat and every victory? One answer for all questions? Something which can help me when none of you are available to advise me? Tell me is there any mantra?” All the wise men were puzzled by the King’s question. They thought and thought. After a lengthy discussion, an old man suggested something which appealled to all of them. They went to the king and gave him something written on p...

Build a Bridge

What am I doing? I'm building a door. It's a big door, stretching so high I can't reach the top. It will extend from way over there on that side all the way over there on the other side. You are probably wondering what kind of door I am buidling. It's not an ordinary door with a wood frame and a wooden sill, hinges, a door knob, and all the things that ordinary doors have. No, this door is no ordinary door at all. You see, my door is made out of brick, bricks that are heavy and firm and strong. I can visualize the bricks being black or blue. Each brick has holes in it. You know the kind we liked to stick our fingers in when we were kids. Normally these bricks are used with mortar filling in the holes to give the finished product extra strength. In my door I'm laying bricks on their side so that the holes provide little spaces to see through. When I'm finished my door will be permanent. There will be no door handle on either side. In order for my door to open, ...
