Maybe someday soon there will be vacation packages for singles, the snowman will return as our beloved holiday mascot and maybe, just maybe, “working people” will become the new political catch phrase.

Last year my friend and I took a trip to Belize together. During that trip my friend convinced me that I’d be able to climb to the top of this Mayan ruin. I thought about staying at the bottom and waiting for her to return, but I didn’t want to be left out. So I climbed along with her. I’m so glad I did! From the top of that structure we could see all the way to Guatemala. Thanks to my friend for encouraging me and opening my eyes to possibility and beauty.
