Sometimes in life, a path is laid out in front of us, and we have no choice to follow it and see where it leads.

I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week.

Something to ponder: Today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. So why worry?

I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week to come.

If the path that you are currently on in your life does not have any obstacles then you may want to consider finding a new path. It is the obstacles that we face in life that challenge us, give us strength, and allow us to accomplish great things.

I hope that you have a great week, and a great 2010.

We do not know if we will be here tomorrow, yet we still get so hung up about our “worldly stuff”. We have jobs to make money to pay for our “stuff”. We have closets full of “stuff”. We have yards sales to sell off our old “stuff” so we can buy new “stuff”. I am not accusing anyone of being materialistic, but I can speak from personal experience that I sometimes get too concerned about my “stuff”.

We need to follow some of the examples that we see in nature. This duck does not own any “stuff”, but somehow she still survives. She just does what ducks do and she does not need stuff to do it.

I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week to come.

I am sorry for the long absence. I have been dealing with some technical issues with this new computer that I bought a couple months back. I hope that they are now all resolved.
______________________________________________________

I draw inspiration for my weekly thoughts form may different things. This inspiration happened to come from a TV show.

“So live your life. Live every day and know that the future is unwritten. Make the most of it.”

At first I found it difficult to find a photo that would depict this quote then with a little nudge from a friend I found the perfect photo that depicts me the photographer making the most of the photographic opportunities that I am given, and the subjects of the photo doing what they enjoy. I hope that you agree that I picked the perfect photo.

I hope that you all had a great thanksgiving, and I hope that you have a great week to come.

Many have heard the saying “No man is an island”, but some have a hard time grasping the concept that it teaches.

What does it mean?

I think that it is meant for the overly independent among us. It reminds us that we are social creatures. It reminds us that we need the help and support of others, and that we need to be there to help and support the people around us when they need it.

I hope that you have a great week. Please don’t be an island.

These pictures were taken on a cloud day right after a rain storm. Even on the dreariest of days, I find some beauty to photograph.

We also need to find some beauty in every day of our lives. We may be going through some tough times, but as long as we are able to find the flower in the midst of the rainstorm, we know that we can get through any situation.

I hope that you have a great week.

Most of us are capable of flying to great heights in our lives. But, like this bird, we do not fly very far off the ground. Why do some of us not fly high into the sky and reach our full potential?

I know that the biggest reason that I do not fly high is FEAR! FEAR OF MAKING MISTAKES, FEAR OF NOT BEING GOOD ENOUGH, FEAR OF NOT BEING WORTHY, AND FEAR OF FAILING.

Fear is limiting, and crippling and it hold you back from reaching your goals. When you feel fear that you know is holding you back from accomplishing your goals there is only one thing you need to do.

Stand against the fear and shout in you mind: “I AM NOT AFRAID!” If you do this often enough, one day you will be bigger than your fear and it will no longer be your master.

Many of you are probably wondering where my thought and photo postings have been. My 5 year old computer that I use to post my photos finally needed replacing. It took a while to load all my software and get back to an operational status. Here is the thought and photo that I planned to post before my unfortunate hardware failure.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes we decide to stray off the path that has been set before us. Most of the time we realize that leaving the path was a bad decision. Eventually we get so deep into the “woods” that it’s hard to find the path again.

There is hope however! We all come with a built in “compass”. If we close our eyes and just listen to this “compass”, the direction that we need to go to get back on our path will be made clear.

I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week to come.

Our Lives are usually as stressful and chaotic as we allow them to be. Sometimes we get stuck in a rut and just do things a certain way. We never realize that there may be a better and less stressful way of doing things.

Sometimes just doing something relaxing will allow us to clear our head. That way, when we enter the stressful situation again; we may be more open to a better way of handling things.

I hope that you have a great weekend, and a great week to come.

All too often we stretch ourselves too thin. Some of us, like me, tend to have way too many things going on in our lives at any one time. If we try to concentrate our efforts on too many different things at once the result could be disastrous.

Confucius once said “If you chase two rabbits, both will escape”.

I hope that you have a great weekend. I also hope that in the coming week that you do not end up “chasing too many rabbits”.

As we age we often forget that life is supposed to be fun. When we are young, fun is what we are about. This is somehow lost in the time of our lives.

If we find something that connects us with this lost youthful exuberance, we should keep doing it even if someone tells us otherwise. It is this connection with our youth that I believe will get us though some of the toughest times of our lives.

I hope that you have a great weekend, and a great week to come.

An old saying says “You can not dig yourself out of a hole”. You may not be able to dig yourself out of a hole, but given the right motivation you can propel yourself out like a rocket and reach new heights never before thought possible.

I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week to come.

Sometimes we try to make a change but we don't really feel like we are doing anything different. We sometimes feel as though what we are doing really doesn't even matter to anyone.

I can tell you something! What you are doing matters!! You matter!! I know that sometimes change is hard, but if you stay on the right path, it will take you to some really wonderful places.

Sometimes in life it seems as though we are caught in an unending loop. We try to make positive changes in our lives, but we end up right back where we started.

I am speaking from personal experience here. I can tell you that positive change is possible, and that you can break out of those seemingly unending loops. Just keep trying, and eventually when the timing is right, you will make that change that you desire.

I hope that you have a great weekend, and a great loop-free week.

I was reading something recently and it reminded me of something that happened to me in my childhood. When I was growing up I had a big maple tree in my back yard. That tree was where I had a swing, and it was also my favorite tree to climb in.

Now one of the first times that I climbed in this tree I made the mistake of climbing really high in the tree, hanging from one of the limbs, and then looking down. BIG MISTAKE!! I was frozen with fear. I gripped the tree limb so tight that my knuckles turned white. My best friend saw me hanging there and he told me “let go, and you’ll be all right”. I hung on even tighter. Then finally I grew so tired that the only thing that I could do was let go. Of course, the height was not as much as I thought. I picked myself up off the ground, brushed myself off, and I was fine.

This story illustrates what happens in our lives. We try to do things our way and get into trouble. Then, when we have to face the fear of our situation we hold on with a white-knuckle grip. We must understand that we have to sometimes just “let go”, and we will be OK.

I hope that you have a great weekend and a great week.

One of the greatest secrets in life is how to find a balance. All too often we find ourselves unbalanced, and unhappy.

However those times when we do find balance in our lives, we are at our happiest.

I hope that you have a great balanced week to come.

One day I was talking with a friend of mine, and she asked me a very simple question; “What are you plans for the coming week?” I proceeded to name off all of the things that I had to accomplish, all of the things that I hoped to accomplish, and all of the things that I probably would not have the time to accomplish. Her only response to my rather lengthy to do list was “Don’t you ever take the time to do anything that you actually enjoy doing?”

She was so right! Most of us do not set aside time in our week to do things that we truly enjoy. It is a sad but true fact.

My friend knows me very well, and she reminded me that I really enjoy my photography, and I also enjoy field archery, but I have not taken the time to actually enjoy these things lately. Well, now that it has been pointed out to me, I think that it is high time to make a change. Now I will resolve to set some time out of my busy schedule to actually do something that I enjoy doing, and I challenge you to do the same.

I hope that you have a great weekend, and a great week to come. It’s time to get out and find something to truly enjoy.

If you look closely at the waterfall in the enclosed photos, you will notice a distinct difference in how the water looks. The difference is based on the amount of time that the shutter was open. It took me a while to learn this technique of freezing the motion of the water in an instant of time.

Time is something that I have been thinking a lot about in recent days. As many of you know from my update email, I have a lot more time on my hands now that I am working a new schedule. So, of course I am thinking a lot about how to best spend this new found time that I have.

I think that time is like a treasure. We only have a certain amount of it every day. If we waste this precious treasure called time we have no one to blame but ourselves.

I hope that you make the most of every second. Have a great weekend, and a great week to come.

I have been thinking a lot about the concept of change recently. I have been meeting with a group of friends once a week and we have been discussing how to best make some positives changes in our lives.

The Greek philosopher Heraclitus may not have been the first person to ponder the concept of change, but he gave us a nugget of truth in 474 BC that has lived on to this day. He said “The only constant is change”.

Things are always changing with us, in us, and around us. Just in recent history the entire human race has undergone many changes. We have been able to devise machines to help us achieve our goals. What happens to these machines when our goals change? They become relics of a bygone era.

The same thing can happen to us if we get in a rut and are unwilling to change. We ourselves can become relics. Don’t let this happen to you. Remain flexible and keep setting your sites on your goals.

I hope that you have a great week.

I saw this car and I just had to grab a camera and take a few photos. I know that the car was meant to be a joke, but it still reminded me of how we sometimes get too wound up in our lives. We sometimes let our lives get to the point where it seems like we are no longer in control. We get wound up by the stress of work, family, or friends and that stress drives us in a direction that we do not want to go.

When this happens, we have to put ourselves back in the driver’s seat of our lives and stop letting others choose the direction that we will go.

I hope that in the coming week that you will be going in a direction of your choosing.

There is a question that I have been thinking about a lot this week. What is confidence? As we go through the challenges of our lives our confidence is put to the test. Sometimes we have to do things that are outside our comfort zone. Some people mistake confidence for arrogance. Whatever label you put on it, I think that a little confidence is a good thing to have. This week I am sharing some special photos with you. I am entering the enclosed photos in an art show, and I am confident that I will win at least one award.

I hope that you have a great week full of the confidence that you need to deal with whatever situations you face.

This week, I would like to try something a little different. I am in the process of trying to choose some photographs for upcoming art show. I would like all of you to help me in choosing the photo for the non-color photography category. Here are two of my possibilities. Send me a message, and cast your vote for your favorite one.

Sometimes in life, we find ourselves “driving in the fog”. We usually don’t know how we got into the fog in the first place. Most of the time, we also can not see a way out. So we drive along aimlessly hoping that it will eventually clear.

Then something happens in our life. We come across a “light” in the middle of the fog, and we follow this light until we can come out of the fog bank. When we come out the light of the sun seems brighter somehow and the day seems clearer then we ever thought possible.

If you are in a fog, I hope that you soon find that light that will lead you out into a beautiful sunny day. I hope that you have a great weekend and awesome week ahead.

As we are now well into a new month, I am wondering how many New Year’s Resolutions have already fallen by the wayside. I know that I have not been able to keep up with some of my resolutions.

We do not need to be hard on ourselves about this, but we too often are.

Sometimes we have to realize that not reaching our goals is just a fact of life.

Sometimes despite our best intentions, we do not do the things that we know to be right.

Sometimes we even chose to do the wrong things even though it is contrary to our goals.

Eventually we do the right things and get back on the right path.

I hope that you are on the way to getting back on the path that is right for you, and I hope that you have a great week.
