Be Aware of Wonder

I saw the cutest thing today ...

On The Promenade, here in Seaside (North Coast of Oregon), I came upon a young couple, with 3 young children .. they had obviously been on the beach, and "Daddy" was helping the kids get the sand out of their shoes ...

One by One he handed each shoe to "Mommy", who very carefully poured the sand out of each little shoe into a sock ?

Apparently they had never seen the ocean nor the beach, and were “Saving A Memory” 🙂

... How Sweet Is that?

  • To quote a part of my favorite Affirmation:

    ”... When you go out into the world,
    Watch out for traffic,
    Hold hands and stick together.
    Be aware of wonder

... again .. May we forever “Be Aware of Wonder

Pax!!

Joe

The theme shown in the training is called the Hero Theme.

Hope this helps.

Actually, it is "Hiero" .. (not "Hero")

My Wife was an Oregon City Girl .. Me, I was born and raised in New Mexico ..
My Wife and I met in PortAngeles, WA in ‘84 .. lived “off grid” for years in NE Washington State, and finally ended up here in Seaside ‘bout 20 years ago.

PNW Rocks !!!

I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone and live more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
'cause there's really nothing left here to stop me
It's just a thought, only a thought

But if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
Well I deserve nothing more than I get
'cause nothing I have is truly mine

Dido, Life For Rent

That is what We did ..

At one point, we decided we wanted to live by The Ocean.
Every weekend for a year, we drove to the coast .. searching from up in Southern Washington State, down to Northern California, visiting beachside communities getting a feel for the communities and the people .....

We always seemed to gravitate towards “Seaside, Oregon”

Long story short, we packed up and moved to Seaside, and have been here ever since (~20 years now)

..... One Word: “Just-Do-It” ... (ok, maybe that’s 3 words?)

Regards, M’Friend

Thanks Joe,

We are water people too, mostly Long Island, New York but decided we had enough snow for the rest of our lives so went deep south, south of the Mason Dixie line.

For good.

By the ocean.

Blessings!
