Planned freedom, home

mountains and small glacier — From Oberlin looking at Gunsight Mountain and Sperry Glacier.

At home.

The planned freedom you surround yourself with.

How much agency do you have?

How much agency does your family have?

How much freedom to think, move, feel, contribute, and prioritize?

Satisfied?

Teach hope, home

mountains and lake — Same place, slightly different look. This look is always on a spectrum: from modestly-dramatic to super-dramatic.

Teach hope at home…

Help others hope that they can discern their priorities.

Note: Priorities are a nebulous, under-rated, under-focused on, and remarkably neglected concept.

Show with your life’s example that getting this right leads to personal vibrancy.

Help others take one more defining step…

Prioritize the priorities.

Harvest hope, home

old motel room — Spent 50 days and nights here in 2020. Now it’s Pursuit employee housing. Formerly known as West Glacier Motel. During Covid-19 (2020), Glacier’s entire 500,000-acre East side was closed to visitors.

Hope spawned from the goal (hope) of taking our son, 12, to Glacier for the first time in 2012.

Why?

Imprint something opposite from ‘all he knows…’.

He grew up every summer spending a week on Sanibel Island. Even before he turned one year old.

Palm trees and sunshine.

Flat.

Hot.

Sea-level.

The first year carried the hope he’d want to return a second time.

Why?

Simply to experience the paradox of Florida beaches…

Mountains.

Compounded hope, home

mountains at dawn — Dawn. Driving (West) up to Logan Pass to summit Mt Oberlin.

The more i hope, the more i want to hope.

Simultaneously, the more i want to harvest hope’s lifetime compounded results.
