What a wonderful day, through and through. And not because anything particularly amazing or exciting is happening. Life is happening all around me today and I'm seeing it all. The puppy and I went for a hike this morning in Sibley. The sky was that bright blue color that movies are made of. The clouds stark white. And both being the backdrop for the forrest and trees. The drive up to Sibley is winding and beautiful with sweeping views of the entire bay. I could see three bridges, San Francisco and the East Bay. On the hike, Coach stayed close. If we got too far apart, he'd come back and find me, a bit of a game of hide and seek with me ducking behind a tree to see how long it would take him to sniff me out. He found some dogs to play with, but none that distracted him too much from our journey together. When we got to the peak of this hill I took a moment to really enjoy what I was seeing. The tall grass swaying in the breeze, the meditation labyrinth down below that I had never seen before, the running kids with their parents, the rolling hills ahead. And Coach stayed right by my side. I was so proud.

Now I'm sitting on the couch with Coach to my right and Phoenix right in front of me playing, petting Coach, and bouncing around. Life everywhere. The trees are moving. The wind is dancing. And I got a pup and a kid to keep me company.

Yesterday my challenge was to handle the bookcase and I have to admit that I did nothing on that front. My day just took off and much more exciting coaching things filled the spots that that task was going to take, so I didn't feel too bad. It's still on my list, however.

Today, I want to finish reading the instruction manual for this new practice I'm learning. It's all about how beliefs create your experiences and how limited beliefs can really prevent you from having what you want in your life. I'm learning to become a practitioner of this cool process that is supposed to get rid of limiting beliefs and replace then with new beliefs. Interesting stuff!

So I want to finish the reading and set up a meeting with my partner to practice.
