There comes a time in life when you need to just step back and not only smell the roses but to stay awhile and enjoy their fragrances too.
Today with every gadget known to man, linking yourself to the world - sometimes, I think, we forget to disconnect. I had an eye opener the other day, nothing serious, but it was more the fact of what could have been that scared the shit out of me. It was at that moment that I realized, it was time to disconnect and reconnect with only that of what really matters.
The place for me to unlink myself is most definitely the outdoors. Where the only people you come across are those that are unlinked, just like you are. I love being on my bike. Put me in a group of hundreds or just riding with my neighbors and I will ride. I often get on my bike solo and just pedal the city. The place that I really disconnect is in the woods. Its not about what machine I am on, how fast I am going or how far I cranked but for me it is the calm of hearing nothing but sounds nature has to offer.
Serenity: The state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled: "an oasis of serenity"
Today I found that place. I actually stopped got off my bike and just sat. I sat and I listened.
So when life is getting crazy, find your place, disconnect and then come home and hug your family!
