Don't Sit On The Fence

How do we learn and progress in our mortal journey on earth?

We learn and progress by trying new things

and pushing ourselves into uncharted territory,

telling ourselves,

"Don't Sit On The Fence."

I did just that this week, I took my boys tent camping

and fishing for four days and three nights. 

You might say, how is that hard for you? 

Well, we are not a camping family,

in fact this is the first time we have camped

more than one night ever as a family. 

It is also the first time I have taken my dog

in the car without him getting sick or peeing on everything. 

 It took a lot of planning, preparation and asking questions

from experts (thanks Dad) but it all paid off

and we made it happily to the end of our trip.  

 My children are happy and that makes me happy. 

I am happy I got off the fence, to learn and grow in new ways. 

 I hope that I have made memories with my boys that they will never forget.
