Virtural Vacation

This is another vacation on a motorcycle video. This time through the Stelvio Pass in Italy from Tougue in Cheek's blog.

I miss the road

Just found this video by Landon Durnan on Pret a Voyager's blog. I miss the feel of the road when traveling long distances on vacation, not that I ride a motorcycle, just in the car. I have been on the computer a long time editing photos and trying to figure out ccs, ftp, and other mystical computer code in trying to update my website. So, I will just watch Landon's video for a quick vacation.

Cherokee Wisdom

Two Wolves

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a
battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle is between two
"wolves" inside us all.

One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret,
greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false
pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins?"

The old Cherokee replied, "The one you feed."
