Cooper and I were out playing in the gorgeous weather yesterday, enjoying some downtime before dinner. He was doing his normal digging around rocks when he came across this little guy. When he first asked me if was a lizard or a snake my initial reaction was to run in the opposite direction but when he assured me it had legs...we played with the little guy before letting him go.
I want to me more like Cooper, less jaded and more open to exploration. It seems the past few years I have narrowed my view of the world. I let life happen instead of going out and making it my own. I let fear rule me more than it should. Fear of embarrassment, financial consequences, failure, etc....you get the picture. I really got out of my comfort zone last year...when I ran a marathon and raised money for Leukemia. I need something new to conquer this year. Something that sends shivers up my spine thinking about it. Maybe it's the adrenaline rush I crave, I don't know for sure.
I'm going to try to keep an open mind and I'm sure opportunity will present itself. It usually does!
