    Icelandic Dreams

    I am ecstatic to share with you my visit to Iceland. I did not have a solid grasp of what this country would be and feel like, only wide-eyed curiosity enveloped me of a place not known by many to be included in their list of travel destinations. Has it crossed your mind to ever plan a trip there? Iceland dates back to 874 AD and is an island country known as the land of fire and ice. Its beautiful and surreal landscape is otherworldly not found anywhere else in the world.

    How often do we take time out to appreciate life? Is it everyday, sometimes, or never? Sit and quietly ask yourself this all-important question. Your answer will reveal who and what you are as a person. Starting out each day is a new canvas to be painted. What did your painting from yesterday look like? Reflect and acknowledge to see if you did enough to fulfill your happiness. If you had a day(s) of wandering and complaining, it is because we did not allow ourselves to be centered in mind and spirit.  Centering is the focused attention or energy on something to make one feel comfortable. It is truly a…
