Another year is coming to a close. It has been one that has challenged on every turn. I’ve also had to really look deep inside myself to understand why I behave in the manner that I do at times. I’ve got adjust these behaviours in a big way as they do not serve me, nor anyone for matter.
They are the leftover echoes from a lifetime ago.
First and foremost is my health. I’ve take a few hits over the past few years. Time to dust myself off and get on with living.
Getting back into shape is going to be painful. But you know, it’s worth it! Yesterday my daughter and I headed up to Grouse Mountain here in Vancouver, BC.
We are not skiers, however, there are lots of activities. We hiked about for several hours. Stood in many a long lineup, and dined before coming back down at day’s end.
I’ve been making it a point to be active every day this week. Yesterday left me in pain but you know what? It was worth it. I can’t stay on the sidelines any longer. I’ve got to fight through and take back my health.
And man, are we ever blessed here in Vancouver. This is Vancouver’s backyard. I hope you can come and play with us some time. Enjoy!
Early morning December 30, 2015 – Vancouver is in the backdrop.
Boats in the harbour.
On the other side, valley’s and mountains for as far as the eye can see!
The Lions in winter…these are feature of Vancouver that are highly recognizable.
Just wow!
Skating!
Prancer taking some downtime!
A Blue Jay looking for a nibble!
The majesty of the mountains that surround us
One of the ski hills
And as we prepare our decent the clouds appear like waves below
Thanks for a beautiful day!
To everyone who has followed my blog, I’d like to wish you all a very Happy New Year! May 2016 be filled with wonder and blessings of every kind.
Peace!
