TRIPPING

So I recently returned from an amazing trip to Switzerland and Lake Como Italy.  WOW  right ?? That's what I was saying while I was there......you see this girl is afraid of heights and I WAS IN THE ALPS.  Do I need to say more?  How can you be in the ALPS and not partake in the scenery from above.  Gondola express is what they call it....took the trip to the highest point it could go near the Matterhorn ( yup just like the one at Disney ....but this one is no Disney ride haha ) we'll little do I know ....we arrived at the first stop and here I am all  ready to get out and hubby says to me " no way we still have 2 stops". It points straight up into the air and says WE ARE GOING THERE!  Holy sh..
I say.  Then my fav ....You're kidding me right?  We'll no turning back here.  I literally felt on the top of the world....cause I was ! What a spiritual, amazing site this was.  Life changing for me !!!
So....how does one go from on the "Top of the world " to back home in St. Louis Mo you may ask.
  Well you see....everyday I feel on top of the world because I am here....living the present moment.
Check out the pics !!! Your thoughts?

I love, love, love homemade Chicken Noodle Soup.  It's good for the soul right?  I have some brewing as I write and it makes me want to be soulful....get it??   Funny right?
OK, maybe not so funny but I have this great book CARE OF THE SOUL( by Thomas Moore.....love his books)  that I have read more than once.  I usually pick it up and what ever hits me for that moment I read and yes...it usually ALWAYS fills my soul right where I need it, that particular day. For instance what I read today was just what I needed, since this is my first blog post and I need to share.

To the soul, memory is more important than planning, art more compelling than reason, and love more fulfilling than understanding.  We know we are well on the way toward soul when we feel attachment to the world and the people around us and when we live as much from the heart as from the head.  We know soul is being cared for when our pleasures feel deeper than usual, when we can let go of the need to be free of our complexity and confusion, and when compassion takes the place of distrust and fear.  Soul is interested in the differences among cultures and individuals, and within our selves it wants to be expressed in uniqueness if not in outright eccentricity.  By caring for the soul every day, we step out of the way and let our full genius emerge.

I just finished my bowl of soup and it was delicious!!  Until next time......
