Dive Right In and Follow Your Dreams

So this may not be the most flattering photo of myself but I have to say it represents so many lessons that my girlfriends have taught me.  This photo was taken in July 2010.  I went on a girlfriends get-a-way vacation and when my friend Heather showed me the list of possible excursions I jumped at the chance to "Swim with the Whale Sharks."  Well Heather got right on the phone and arranged the trip.  She knew how much I wanted to do this, how nervous I was but that it was something  that I had my heart set on.  She gave me her sea sickness patch and sent me on my way.  It was one of the most amazing surreal experiences of my life. When we got back to our Palapa, Heather was waiting anxiously to hear every detail.  She taught me to dream big and dive right in... I knew she was there to support me, cheer me on, and even help me out if I got seasick.  Heather passed away a few months after this trip so I wanted to start this blog with this lesson to remind myself everyday to Dream Big!

Learn Something New Everyday

Well, while checking in on some of my favorite blogs I came across the 101 in 1001 days site.  I was intrigued and wanted to create a list.  I tried to sign in but saw that you had to have a blog... well why not?  This is my first attempt at a blog.. it will be an adventure for sure as I have no idea of how to blog.  I figure I can post some of my favorite things.. and maybe even inspire others with lessons I have learned from "Snowball Road."
