Day 19 of Gratefulness: Skiing

Any chance I can go skiing I'll take it. There is something about the mountains that's just so zen for me. The fresh air, the beautiful scenery and of course the chance to move my body is where I find my balance. I have to remind myself actually often to get up there and do it. It's so easy for me to just get caught up in day-to-day stuff and forget that balance is important to my well-being.

When I'm up there I feel free, without a care in the world. I love the way the cold crisp air brushes against my exposed cheeks. Or how the snow feels under my skis. I love the blue skies as well as the big rolling clouds. The peaks and valleys and the pure sounds of nature. I feel so lucky to live where I do and to make the time to do what I love.
