Ever had the thought to want to go do something - but never really made it a priority to take the time to actually follow it through? I will be leaving tomorrow afternoon, to go away for a few days by myself. Can't remember the last time - if ever - that I have done this.
Driving up the coast of Maine - heading Downeast, as they say - to Bar Harbor and Acadia Ntl. Park. Hope to spend some quiet moments enjoying the Creation under my feet, the Beauty before my eyes, and just experiencing the Safety of LIFE entering and exiting my body while I catch my breath.
We have but one life to live - and I choose to live my life with intention. Fully prepared to see the next few days through the eyes of what is intended FOR me. Joy? Quiet? New Friends? Beauty? Solitude? Exercise? Peace? - Can't wait!!!

Hey there I didnt know you were in Maine!! I grew up on the ME/NH seacoast, my family is still in NH (Dover & Concord these days). The furthest up north in Maine Ive been was Unity. My best friend's mom lived there on a dairy farm and we'd go up in the summers for a couple of weeks.
Anyway, I hope you have a blast and relax and enjoy yourself, recharge!!!

Boy do I need it...but I actually live in MA. Just always wanted to go there (bar harbor) and never have...so now I am. Sometimes you just got to treat yourself - they way you treat the rest of those you love. I'm actually getting a little excited :)

Have a great time! I am doing that ME time right now. First time, vacation by myself just for myself. This is my second day, it feels so good. I hope to reclaim what I lost years ago...faith in me. I hope this time away for you is a healing one.

that sounds like a good plan Paula. When I was going through my divorce I took my sons (9 & 10 at the time) and drove up through the Blue Ridge Parkway North Carolina and stayed at some out of the way places, visited a gem mine, just enjoyed Nature and each other, it was very satisfying for the soul. Hope you can keep in touch some with us. We will miss you but know you are doing this for you.
Hugs,
Joyce

I treasure ME TIME. I don't get it very often so when I can I take total advantage of it.
Enjoy yourself Paula, you have truly earned it. xoxoxo

Have a safe and wonderful time! Let the peace and solitude soothe your soul so you can come back re-invigorated and ready for anything! I hope you took your camera!
