Britton Felber: Find something amazing, it will do you some good.

Find something amazing, it will do you some good.

There are many things I love. One of them is being warm! Sounds simple, doesn't it? I really don't like being cold. Everyone would rather be warm than cold . . . or at least everyone would like to be warm on a beach that is almost empty. An empty beach would be the ultimate dream come true.

We got up early, had breakfast as a family then took off to the other side of the island where this wonderful beach awaited us. The sky was gorgeous with big fluffy clouds. The water was warm and refreshing. The palm trees were loaded with bananas and coconuts which we sampled to our hearts' content. Ahhhhhhhhh, it was the life. It was so good it almost seemed surreal. The beauty was so vivid it almost took your breath away. The sweet smell of the ocean at my feet . . . man, I just loved it.

It's interesting how good it feels to be surrounded by God's beautiful creation. It does one's soul good to get away from the cell phone and email and to go somewhere beautiful . . . but what if you can't? Well, keep coming back here and I'll do all I can to bring that virtual beauty right to your home. You will have to turn off the cell phone though. I can't do that for you. ;) HAHA. Okay, I bet you thought I was going to say something serious about then but if you know me I can't keep a straight face for very long. It's too much work being serious.

Okay, it's good to get out and take time to appreciate the beauty around you. Whether that is somewhere out west like Yosemite, out east like Niagara Falls or on a deserted island . . . take some time and do it! You will thank yourself later. And maybe you will thank me for pushing you over the edge. I hope so! Life is short. Don't miss the beauty around you.
