The Wayward Journey: Tired

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2012/06/tired.html

Wednesday, June 6, 2012. June 9, 2012 at 8:34 AM. Oh my sweet Wendy! My prayers are with you and your family! I will call you soon! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I've always dreamed of being extraordinary, so imagine my shock when my life devolved into something quite ordinary. In an attempt to recapture some of my old glory, I hope to share past stories. To work towards the extraordinary, I hope to share my dreams as they become more of a reality. View my complete profile. Peru - A Brief Glimpse.

The Wayward Journey: May 2012

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 2, 2012. So, with this thought in mind, I relegated it to a fun experience that maybe I would repeat in another 18 months if I even remembered to do it. How was this happening? I had always been under the impression that this kind of thing never happened to me, but it seems that this is going to be my year for a lot of great things happening for me, so if I am going to get on the show, this will be the year to do it.

The Wayward Journey: February 2012

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html

Sunday, February 5, 2012. The Art of Getting Lost. Perhaps it is time to be a bit more careful. This isn't to say that I will give up solo hikes altogether. I will, however, be far more mindful of the paths I choose- those that are well-defined and well-traveled. I am getting to that stage in my life where it is finally sinking in that I am not invincible. Took me long enough to realize this, yes? Who knows. All I know is that I made it out yet again unscathed, and I drove off with a smile on my face.

The Wayward Journey: June 2011

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Tuesday, June 28, 2011. I know that I am not unique in having specific songs remind me of certain experiences or people. There has to be something about the nature of music that we humans instinctually grasp onto, and it certainly is something through which we can bond. I found this to be especially true with my touring companions in Croatia. An example of the tamburica. Thursday, June 16, 2011. Kayaking to get here was very much worth it! Monday, June 13, 2011. Okic Castle - the way up was a bit steep.

The Wayward Journey: Big Ideas

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2012/01/big-ideas.html

Thursday, January 5, 2012. But, does life ever really fit into such a neat, tidy construction? In real life, all of these things may still happen, but there would not be some ulterior reason, no grand cosmic scheme that drove these events. It wouldn’t be the day that my life changed for a grander purpose. It would just be a day that happened to be awful. Why do I do it? Most likely, I have given this idea way too much thought. I tend to do that with ideas that intrigue me. I've always dreamed of being ex...

The Wayward Journey: Peru -- A Brief Glimpse

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2012/06/peru-brief-glimpse.html

Monday, June 4, 2012. Peru - A Brief Glimpse. I never dreamed that I would have a chance to explore the Amazon Basin and encounter monkeys, tarantulas, frogs, and more. (Not many mosquitos, though, which was a very pleasant surprise! And, even more importantly, I held myself to my goal of reaching my fifth continent before turning thirty. That in itself is pretty amazing because I am not one to set goals, let alone achieve them. What was the food like? Would I do it again? View my complete profile. Anecd...

The Wayward Journey: June 2012

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html

Sunday, June 10, 2012. My mom was released on Friday, too. I am not sure how she is doing really, but she sounded alright when I talked with her yesterday. She has a long way to go before she is really okay, but at least it is a step in the right direction for now. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers, and really, just for letting me vent in this space. Funny, but I never wanted to be this kind of writer where it all became about the crises that occur.

The Wayward Journey: September 2011

http://thewaywardjourney.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html

Sunday, September 18, 2011. Peta did it. Empty cans of beer or bottles of liquor strewn about the house? The rabbit did it. String of robberies throughout the city? She was the mastermind. Are we nuts? Perhaps, but only in the way that all families have their idiosyncrasies, right? I also have lots of fun memories and great pictures. And for those willing to listen, a great story that remains unfinished. Crater Lake - Me: Age 25, Peta: Age 19. She looks a little worse for the wear. If I may indulge a bit...
