Snowflakes and Flowers

      Picture this.       You are standing at the edge of a snow glazed mountain . Feet  are covered in three layers of wool socks.  Still . The cold bites at your ankles.

You meet your hand on top of that magical glow  .

No thoughts of "failure" or the real "why"  to my goal.  Just staying focused on the task with pure unbridled  "Action." This kind of  mentality is something I have begun to lose in the past five years growing up. I get an Idea . I th
