Well, here we
are right in the middle of summer. Most
likely a few of you have already gone on a vacation or are planning one. Vacations are good for the soul. Not only do they give you quality fun time
with loved ones, they also rejuvenate. Who couldn’t use some rejuvenation!
Recently, my
husband and I went on a three-day excursion. Granted, it wasn’t a week vacation, but it was fun. We went zip lining and horseback riding. My husband, at 72
years old, rolled down a hill for the first time in his life! He didn’t even have that on his bucket
list. We were sitting with a few other
vacationers and commented on the little children rolling down the hill and how
much fun that used to be. My husband
said he had never done that. Well, the
rest was history. The guests all stood
up and clapped when he reached the bottom.
Not sure if it was because he had made it or had not seriously injured
himself!
We met some
special people while we were there. We
spoke with a grandfather who was there with his wife, daughter, son-in-law, and
grandson. He told us that his grandson
at the age of 5 years old, had already had 6 brain surgeries and although his
prognosis was favorable, they were going to do as much with him and have him
experience as much of life as possible.
My point is,
take some time off for yourself. Life
can fly by in an instant and it doesn’t matter if you are 5 or 72 years old. Enjoy all moments and take that
vacation whether it be a long weekend or a month. Vacations are good for the soul!
