So far, we have visited this community park twice. The first time, we went on our own. The second time, we went with our neighbors and bumped into another neighbor and a church friend there.
If you have not tried it, sledding down a hill is crazy fun. It is a little harmless, although we have seen a kid ended up in the stream b'cos the sled was travelling at a very high speed.
The habit of always putting off an experience until you can afford it, or until the time is right, or until you know how to do it is one of the greatest burglars of joy. Be deliberate, but once you've made up your mind, jump in! - Tim Hansel

What are you doing to keep the cutting edge of your life razor sharp? Perhaps another way to ask that is for what are you waiting? Or for whom are you waiting? How many burglars of joy do you allow to break through the doors and windows of your life to rob you of fun, the challenge of living life to the fullest?
To live on the dull edge is really to become a slave to life. Is that happening to us? Are we allowing someone or something to enslave us, so that we will live our lives and ultimately pass from time to eternity without ever discovering who we are? Some do. That's not living. That's existing.
