First day of Spring and the pool is open for business

Yesterday, the first day of Spring 2015, the pool temp reached 87.

While not comfortable enough to relax in, it was warm enough to wade in and appreciate that we are only weeks away from “Summer”, Florida-style.

So much work behind the scenes to make it look effortless.

And so it goes. Day after day.

Fun is in the home freedom.

It’s astonishingly staggering the space we make in every corner of our lives when we clean out the corners of our drawers, closets, and other living spaces.

In two words – extraordinarily freeing.

Being free is fun.

Having fun is a big part of why we exist.

No brainer, eh.

Busy, busy.

We are all kids at heart. And we are teachers as well – some of us use a simple diagram to explain life’s five big choices:

mind • body • spirit • money • hq

We think, we move, we feel, we earn, we dwell.

Is the goal to be spontaneous?

List of philosophers
Great philosophers who didn’t believe in God. Who knew? Who cares?

 

An important goal of being decently organized is to be able to build in the spontaneity factor.

This is the ability to stop in the midst of many priorities and be able to shift to – something important, but not urgent.

Like realizing that in 90 minutes a new movie is about to start and now is perfect timing, so you call an audible and do it.

And the movie (as you hoped but highly doubted) you saw ends up being one of the best you’ve ever seen. Ever.
