Thankful for Another Notable Epictetus Insight, a Deep Hiking Conversation, & a Wedding

Circumstances don’t make the man, they only reveal him to himself.

Appreciation:

On our hike this morning Becky and I got into a handful of deep conversation topics, some that had me thinking very deeply. The power of gratitude over fear, love over hate, how to be joyful when life throws curveballs. We also delved into the outward impact of others versus the outward impact of the individual, and a touch of believing in something much greater than ourselves and the power of that belief – in any form – to help hums become more grounded within the world and ourselves.

The hike itself was amazing, the views spectacular, and the conversation still has my brain working overtime.

Presence:

Always fun gathering with those we don’t gather with often. A time to share stories and memories. So much laughter this evening at the wedding, it was awesome spending time with so many family members. We never know how much time we have left, the times like this become all the more special when we remember to pause and appreciate them.

Thanks!!!
