Do My Actions Align with My Words?

YEARS AGO we were hiking in the mountains around Vail. As we came out into a meadow I saw a woman sitting on a rock with her watercolors out and capturing the field. As we passed her I whispered to Kelly, “Someday, I want that to be me”. He answered why would I wait and […]
