Cool SoakA cool foot soak in Heart Creek Alberta Canada.

Might as well get my feet wet with the first blog on this site.  This is not my foot however, and that water was cold. 

We were entertaining friends from Germany and one of them insisted sticking her feet into any water we happened to come by.  It seemed unorthodox at the time and kind of a pain because we were used to hurrying and getting somewhere.  Sometimes it takes friends that have never been there before to show you what you have been missing.  We stopped and it taught me a good lesson. 

Enjoy the moment. 

We could have simply walked by and probably forgotten that moment long ago.  Instead, we now have that experience forever that cost us mere minutes.  For a moment with our feet in the water, there was only now. 

Only when you are here in the now are you actually living.  I work and live in a virtual world much of the time, but a simple picture of my daughters foot in a creek reminds of how I should try and live my life. - John.
