My happy place..

Stressed out much? Feeling run down? People workout, some watch movies, others read, and there are those that self medicate. Hopefully we stay away from the latter. We all have our "fixes" that for a minute, help us to forget about the tiny nuisances that sometimes consume our lives.  This "fix" takes us to our happy place where we can clear our thoughts, pamper our souls and take a breath of fresh air. To help me stay focused on my life goals, to be an effective educator, and to keep my journey positive- I turn to art and music. LOTS of it.  Life is beautiful, but in those moments when the beautiful seems so far away, where do YOU go?

Favorite artist of the moment: Banksy

Favorite musician of all time:  Sigur Ros

  1. Great fixes!!

    I got a few myself...like cuddling with my doggie as we watch hulu and netflix...like video taping surfers while floating in an inner tube that's leashed to a surfboard in a torrential downpour...like watering the plants of people who aren't my neighbors while they're on vacation...and good old-fashioned QT with family/friends!!

    Everybody deserves a fix!!

  2. My fix to repair, patch up, and mend any dings in my life is a morning session in the warm tropical waters surrounding this beautiful island. Despite the stresses, challenges, and demands of my everyday life, my spirituality, and my soul strengthen through the majestic life and wonder the ocean blesses me with....

  3. Fix.....a time and space to shut out the world to gather my thoughts and feelings. It is a moment of clarity to reposition myself towards my goals and dreams. I believe it is essential to clear my mind of cluter and be in the moment. I am mindful and grateful for the life i have. There are definitely crazy moments in my life when I lose my vision of life. It is necessary to go out in the early morning water to cleanse the soul and heart. A fix is when I am able to blast my music and sing really loud in my car. A fix is being able to play video games into the late night hours. The most critical fix is to have an empty place to sit n pass time.
