Do not go
where the path
may lead,
go instead where
there is no path
and leave a trail.
Emerson's quote above makes me think about change, risk-taking, and moving into the unknown or unfamiliar.
If you think about it, we do that every day. Nothing stays static. Once you get used to something, a situation, a schedule, or a relationship, it becomes boring. We need change to make life interesting.
This is true in all of life, I think. In work. In play. In our personal lives.
I've made a few changes around here, if you haven't noticed. I added a few "plug-ins" on the left-hand side of the page and at the bottom. You can now scroll down to the bottom of the page and read the daily news. I've added a link to my travel blog on the left-hand side of the home page, below my photo; it includes the title (or partial title) of updated posts. Click on that if something interests you.
I've changed my photo, but it's a subtle change. And I've included a more convenient link below it so you can sign up for my RSS feed. That's so you can get updates of my posts sent directly to your e-mail address, if you like.
And be sure to participate in my poll. I'm curious to know what you do for stress relief. December is a pretty timely month to discuss this. After all, we're out there tackling traffic, trying to fit as much into our schedules as possible to create happy holidays ahead.
I hope yours will lead to something new and exciting.

Jackie,
Emerson has not hiked in our National Forests or Parks on their formal trails there lately has he? :)
Jary,
He might have made a few ghostly appearances. Ha-ha!
