Walking Like Freckles


Feet barely skimming the ground, Freckles is a study in enthusiasm as she explores the forest trail anew each day.  It is still hunting season, so I call her back when she roams too far away, and she gleefully stretches her legs to race towards me.  She even skips.  I saw her.

She reminds me of what we all need more of in our lives: sheer childlike enthusiasm.  Full steam ahead, doing our absolute best at whatever we chose to do, simply because it makes us happy.

  2. This post made me smile - how true! It's sad that we so often lose this as we grow older.
