A Trip Down Hope Lane

Street sign for Hope Lane in Palm Beach Gardens, FloridaOn this morning’s run, I came across this sign. It is the third time I took this route in a week. Yet, I didn’t notice the sign until this morning. 

How many times do we go through situations without realizing hope is right there. Zig Ziglar liked to quote John Maxwell and say, “If there is hope in the future, there is power in the present.” It is true that we need hope in order to keep moving forward. It is a sad person who is trying to trudge forward without noticing hope is before him.

We all need a trip down Hope Lane. None of us really know the future. We can embrace it and acknowledge doomsayers aren’t always right and we can do something today that gives hope to the future.

Source of All Humidity 

The other day, I read about Occam’s Razor. It states that the simplest explanation is usually the correct one.

I thought of that as I ran through this morning’s humidity. If I was going to experience the moisture, I figured I could see the source of it all.

Juno Beach was spectacular this morning. It was well worth the trip. That is what I love about mornings. When I get up and go running, I never know what I am going to experience. The joy of a sunrise never ceases to amaze me. However, I can do without the humidity!

No Disturbing the Rocks

Sign says Notice: Do not disturb rocksThis sign amused me when I first saw it, then it got me thinking. I never thought rocks needed protection. Yet some do, don’t they?

The rocks surrounding this sign were large and looked too heavy for anyone to move. It looked like a solid foundation to me. Yet someone must have moved a few of them before if this sign was deemed necessary.
