The photo below was an epiphany and confirmation for me, that I am 100% in alignment with my journey in life.  Read below to see how…

 
Is it truly possible to find bliss?  Is there a great moment right in front of us just waiting to happen?  Can the very act of doing a BASE Jump [...]

Day 55 – Using Music to Regroup – Somewhere Over The Rainbow.

Videos and songs that help you feel better about any day you have had are great ones to have in your quiver.  If you can pull out an arrow that is sure to fire and make you feel good…it is always the best one to use.  This song is legendary and the number of ways it has [...]

Quote of the Day! – Adam Scott – “There are 20 foot high hamburgers…”

It’s amazing how pervasive food is. Every second commercial is for food. Every second TV episode takes place around a meal. In the city, you can’t go ten feet without seeing or smelling a restaurant. There are 20 foot high hamburgers up on billboards. I am acutely aware of food, and its omnipresence is astounding. [...]

“Food choice more dangerous than BASE Jumping…News at 11!”
My body was unhappy from not eating well all weekend.  I spent the days jumping from a 1000′ bridge with only a parachute to save me each time, but I felt that the choice of foods and what I would consume was more dangerous then the activity of BASE Jumping.

What happens when the mind is completely clear of all “self talk”, thoughts and clutter?  It enters a state of bliss.  When I BASE Jump, Skydive, Snowboard, Fly in the Wind Tunnel and dream about the world I am creating…I am in an absolute state of bliss!
I have over 2000 skydives and over twelve hundred of [...]

To do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in, and scramble through as well as we can.

Day 52 – Standing At The Edge Of A 1000′ Jump…

As I stand on the edge of the 1000′ drop to the river below I take a deep breath and wonder how I got here…I know how…I chose this path for my life.  Soon there would be nothing between me and the ground below.  I would soon choose to put one foot in front of [...]

Quote of the Day! – C.C. Colton – “…health of the mind…”

Anguish of mind has driven thousands to suicide; anguish of body, none. This proves that the health of the mind is of far more consequence to our happiness, than the health of the body, although both are deserving of much more attention than either of them receive.
