I have had the blessing of taking several vacations. Most vacations are taken with my husband and
three children. We have a blast on the Florida beaches, at the top of a lighthouse, in the Blue Spring
Park walking through the
lush vegetation, at the St. Louis Cardinals Spring Training game, and
more. While we enjoy these activities,
we are meeting people and making new friends either in Florida
or new friends traveling to Florida
who is on vacation, too. In fact, we
exchange phone numbers, email address, or Facebook. There have been a few times we find time to
see each other again.
One vacation we traveled to Breckinridge , Colorado
to visit my family. We spent the whole
week renewing our friendship, reminiscing about past times together, and making
more memories. It was a glorious time
together climbing 12,000 foot mountains, shopping, eating great food, panning
for gold, and identifying star constellations while on top of a mountain.
I have the best of both kinds of vacations. I love vacationing and meeting new friends
and I love vacationing with my distant family.
Earl Nightingale said, “Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now.
Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the
future. Think how really precious is the
time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savoured.”
