A life’s work is not a series of stepping-stones…
“A life’s work is not a series of stepping-stones onto which we calmly place our feet, but more like an ocean crossing where there is no path, only a heading, a direction, which, of itself, is in conversation with the elements. Looking back for a sense of reference, we see the wake we have left as only a brief, glimmering trace on the waters.” – David Whyte

a decision about Who You Are…
“Every decision you make, every decision, is not a decision about what to do. It’s a decision about Who You Are. When you see this, when you understand it, everything changes. You begin to see life in a new way. All events, occurrences, and situations turn into opportunities to do what you came here to do.” ~ Neale Donald Walsch

Especially if it’s fun…
“Do not suffer in the never-ending abyss of waiting til you have time or it’s the ‘Right Time’. Life is fleeting. Do it. Now. Especially if it’s fun. Especially if it’s crushingly difficult.” – Crash Gordon

On May 14, 2012 I began my Jumping Joy blogging adventure. Today I am celebrating one year of setting up jumping photo shoots and posting them here to share the jumping joy with the world.
What a pleasure it has been so far. Thank you from the depths of my heart for all your kind comments and support so far.
This collage of 12 jumping photos are a random selection from my first six months of blogging… Its really fun for me to see them all together like this. I have to say, it makes me feel rather sentimental going through them all. I had such a great time taking these photos and have met the most interesting and inspiring people along the way.
They all hold such beautiful memories for me. I still have hundreds more to take all around the world and am so excited for all the adventures to come. I can only imagine how hard it will be when it comes time to select the 1000 jumping photos for my book!
I have another collage from my last six months of bloging for the afternoon post so stop by again later.
Lets keep spreading the joy… keep on sharing my posts to your social media pages, blogs and magazines. I appreciate your help
I LOVE my project and hope you are enjoying it too!
Enjoy and have a wonderful day!
Your laughter will open…
“Your laughter will open a thousand and one roses within you.” – Osho

To accomplish great things…
“To accomplish great things, you must not only act, but also dream, not only plan, but also believe. Be a dreamer, a believer, a courageous and cheerful thinker. Be a planner, a doer, a go-getter who keeps her head in the clouds and her feet on the ground. Let the spirit of passion and possibility ignite a fire within you to do something worthwhile and leave this world a little better than you found it.” – Mark and Angel Hack Life
