Like a good river, life takes you to interesting places. There's usually curves and sometimes flooding, and almost always a bit of trouble. The good news is, if you follow a river, you're guaranteed to get somewhere! My river has had some interesting bends in it lately, but I've decided to start posting here again. This blog helps me get inspired, and I hope you'll find something here that will help you keep moving along down your own river.

I've been a big fan of Yuca for a few years now, and their new single fits the theme this week, so here enjoy! You can find them on facebook, too. Also, congrats to me for the 101th post today! I hope this blog has left some of you inspired, made some of you pause and think, or made someone open to some new ideas. I hope it continues to do so for another 101 posts -- if I can make it there!

Thanks for following until now!

Sometimes the simplest things bring us the greatest happiness.

In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.
