I kept waiting for a seagull to fly directly in front of the sun so I could create the Batman signal. After a while, I gave up. This was my consolation prize. When I showed it to my wife, she said it's actually better than if the seagull had been in front of the sun directly. What do YOU think?

California exists in two colors. Brown and green. During the summer, it's all brown. The grass, the hills, all of it. But, when the rains come between October and March, the entire landscape is full of lush greenery, glistening leaves, and amazing photo opportunities. There is still brown, of course, but for these glorious months, the brown is limited to the trunks and branches of the magestic trees that surround us.

The only thing that's guaranteed in life is this moment. 🌈
And this one. And this one.

Beyond this moment, anything can happen. Even the most certain certainties are uncertain.

Life can change in an instant.

The day, week, month, or year you had planned could be upended in an instant.

That's why you need to live every moment to the fullest.

Say YES! to all the opportunities that come your way. 🙋‍♀️

Take an extra moment to snuggle your kids.

Say sorry.

Let go of grudges.

Start work a little bit late so you can go for a morning hike with your wife. 🌳

That last one describes my morning.

Today was Carrie’s turn to take the kids to school.

My calendar is full of calls, meetings, and work.

I could've been at my desk by 8:50 AM.

Instead, I got in the car with the family.

Dropped the kids off at school …

… and went for an hour-long hike through a redwood forest.

Instead of clicking away, Carrie and I made space to move our bodies, take deep breaths, and connect through words and presence.

We enjoyed the moment.

I’m not sharing this to brag.

Rather, I hope you read this and take a moment for your SELF.

🌸 Take a moment to just BE. 🌸

Put down the phone.

Look around.

Appreciate exactly where you are right now … even if it’s stuck at a desk somewhere.

Find beauty in something commonplace.

What can you be grateful for?

The sun coming in through a window and warming your face …

The technology that allows you to read this in the palm of your hand …

A gentle breeze …

This breath …

This life …

This moment …

Thank you 🙏 ...

So exciting to have so many photos I am in love with ❤️
