I was sitting at home today just chilling on the couch and I got bored and decided to look up apps on my phone to entertain me. I saw a snowboarding game and thought that looked like fun so I downloaded it. As it was downloading, I realized that I was seriously about to sit on my couch and pretend to do something that I really enjoy doing when I could just get off of my ass and go do it for real. That realization led to me taking a spontaneous trip up to Mt. Spokane where I was able to spend some time by myself sinking in the beauty of life (I know that sounds cheesy, but I don't really give a shit; I'm a pretty cheesy person).
Even though I am absolutely terrified of ski lifts, I really value the time I spend on them because it's a solid chunk of time which I'm surrounded by beautiful scenery that I can use to think about all of the blessings in my life and everything I have going for me. It's too easy to get caught up on the negative side of the spectrum when you get stuck in a routine.
Anyway, this is probably one of my shortest posts, but I just got caught up on this thought and am feeling pretty inspired to get out of my routine and find more time to truly live my life. I challenge you to think about this as well.
Like usual, I just want to thank you as well for taking time out of your life to read about mine. The support I am constantly receiving from my friends and my family is inspiring, uplifting, and greatly appreciated.
Love,
A
P.S. Here's a picture of my first ride up. This is the shortest lift, but you have to take it to get to the one above it- that's where you can find some really great views.
