LESSONS


Good Morning to the Universe,

I thought I would provide you an update from the mighty metropolis of Mesquite, Texas (a.k.a. Cozumel Norte). Things are progressing with our adventure but of course not as quickly as I had hoped. We still need to liquidate a few of the big ticket items like the Expedition and the Harley. I know the Creator has a buyer on the way, but once again I was not consulted about the timeline. We are learning so much about what real faith means. I'm not talking about the "things" that occupy so much of our time. It seems as if there are lessons around every corner. I'm not sure if it is because there are more lessons or if I see them better now that I'm not engulfed in all the negativity that has surrounded us for the past few years. I wish I had better words to describe that, but then that would be giving power to it again. I find myself focusing on the beauty and Love of the world more now. There is still some turmoil left however. Living that way for so long is not an easy thing to break, but it is happening. I read something this weekend that helped me very much. I'm supposed to "leap from the cliff, and build wings on the way down." I like that.

The motorcycle rally was a blast. It was our 7th year to attend this one. There were bikes and people everywhere. We met some new friends and reconnected with some old ones. One one the people we connected with is an artist from Austin. We were drawn to his work and his spirit. We were instant lifelong friends. His work is truly amazing. It turns out he is opening a gallery in Playa de Carmen. The Universe knows what it's doing huh? There is and will be more to this story and we are looking forward to those chapters.
There are very few pictures I can post from this trip. You can't really imagine whats it's like when 50,000 bikers come together.

Ours is in there somewhere. This is just one small area. Amazing. I really enjoy this lifestyle and will miss it very much. Its weird but somehow I have a feeling that we will return. For now however, on to new things and new adventures.
A friend of mine likes to ask this question, "When is the last time you did something for the first time?"
What is your answer?
Peace,
Dennis
