![]() ![]() That’s how it felt as we took off for the beach last weekend. Immediately I recalled the memory peddling off for summer adventures when I was a kid: It mattered not our destination or timeframe, the minute we made it to the end of our own street, we were headed for summer fun. We packed up the backpacks, bungee-d down the beach chairs and peddled off. It was an easy sell as I had my 11-year-old niece and her little friend coming over for the afternoon. Instead of jumping in the car and fighting traffic and parking when we got there, she suggested we ride our bikes. She proposed, however, we do it a bit differently than usual. But it was a perfect summer day on the Central Coast, and friend of mine asked me to go to a popular beach a short drive from home. The weekend had arrived and I was feeling like I should spend much of Saturday at my desk again. This past week week I was struggling a bit with business plans, projections and projects. I think one of the best ways to be reminded of our inner wisdom, to solve a problem that’s been nagging at us, or to help ourselves make a decision we’ve been struggling with, is get outside and play. ![]() We just forget as we grow up and life happens to us. But I believe Glenda the Good Witch in the Wizard of Oz was right. We all, at some point or another, struggle to find answers. It is so wise and so true, and could make our paths to enlightenment so much easier. I had this saying taped to my mirror for years.
