Enjoying Leisure

 I just reread my Day 33 preliminary goals, written the day before leaving on the little trip with my daughters, and under Leisure, I'd written that I wanted to achieve more of a sense of calm and the ability to completely drop "planning/obligations" during leisure time.

Upon returning from this little vacation together, I must say, we all succeeded at this, there was this wonderful appreciation of the moment of whatever we were doing: what to cook and eat, where to hike, tending the campfire, etc... we ate all healthy, wonderful meals, went on sane, moderate hikes for 7000' elevation, left enough time for pure relaxation around the campfire and for laying on the rocks around a swimming hole, and I was profoundly aware of how we know each other well enough, love and respect each other enough to know where to give each person space - instead of pressing points or arguing. 

I guess I'm realizing how some goals are achieved by intent & visualization alone - by just the intent of choosing that path.
