Packing bags, getting ready seems like such a job.

Details, details, details.  I’m not a list maker, but I believe I will become one!  Going away from home for more than a weekend there are many things that just simply have to be done.  Bills paid?  Everyone notified? Arrangements for other people to do things every day? A place to stay?  Reservations for a car and activities? Documents in order?  Laundry? Packing?  So for the first part, a great deal of planning and energy goes into getting ready.  This builds anticipation of something fun to come and that is exciting.  Getting ready is a booster to morale!  There is a drop-dead deadline.  When it is time to leave for a flight, you’ve got to be ready!

Then the relaxation begins.  Even before arriving, there’s some time to read, to think, to relax.  Traveling itself is very exciting and fun.

Could the sky be any bluer? Seeing all the other travelers is interesting if you are a people-watcher!  Whatever your view, you get to see it from a new angle!

 

The Promise

Nice that a vacation in another place is the experience of a time-stops-still kind of pace.  Instead of clock time, everything is “in the moment.”  Drink it in, savor it.  It is a click-click-click in the mind as though a camera were recording every moment!

What is bluer than sky? Water!

 

 

 

 

 

 

The third reason for me is returning.  It is not with sadness, it is happiness and a new perspective!  Energized!  Being refreshed and having been pampered there’s a new energy of expectation of how I want my life and surroundings to be!  So a part of the “vacation brought home” involves the vision of and what I can do to be better and to do better.

In case you want to experience travel as I do, ask me about it and how we are doing this much in our retirement!

To your abundant life,
