You live but once; you might as well be amusing.

Toxic cultures exploit generosity. Takers impose extra work on givers, and no good deed goes unpunished.

Healthy cultures reward generosity. People protect givers from takers, and cream rises to the top.

Helpfulness is not a weakness to target. It's a strength to safeguard.

A busy life is not a symbol of status. It's a symptom of trying to do too much for too many people.

A full calendar brings a surplus of stress and a shortage of energy. Reflecting and relaxing should be top priorities.

Unscheduled time isn't wasted. It's invested in well-being.

The amazing dive pros at Indigo Divers Antigua sure had their work cut out for them, but they got me back underwater to see all the fishies on Cades Reef at Lemon Ridge and Monk’s Head (and back to the surface again, glad for that🤪). Diving doesn’t come easy for me, it is al…

Oh good morning, paradise 🏖️☀️ (the calm after the storm of air travel and our first Antigua rental car experience🤪) @antiguavillage

Almost a wrap for 2022! Sounder is the star here for sure - starting out so tiny and new..110 pounds later (or maybe a little more 😂) she sure makes every normal thing into an adventure.
