“There is no map, no guarantee of success. If there was, the map would have been photocopied (or reblogged on tumblr) by now. To move forward, to create what matters, we first need to get off the beaten path and into the unknown. It could fail, and that’s ok. Great creations have always required great risk. Experiment, because experiments don’t fail, they either prove or disprove a point.” – Paul Jarvis

As promised on my previous post.. another random selection of jumping joy images from the past year.
What an amazing time it has been so far. I can’t wait to be able to continue my journey around the world, and to keep sharing the fun jumping joy with you along the way
Thanks again for your all your kind comments, donations and for sharing my posts with your social media links.
You are all an important part of creating this joyful journey, keep on spreading the joy
Have a great afternoon!







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!

“Most of us fail to realize the tremendous potential that lies before us in each moment of our lives. Every moment of every day, we face the opportunity to start over completely, to modify the way that we see the world, to change the ways that we react to certain stimuli. Our lives are ours to fashion, and we do so through the ways that we approach our days and our circumstances, through the ways that we act and react, and through the ways that we treat others and ourselves.” – Daniel Bilog (Positivity)
