all you need is now

Turn the key.  Sunglasses on.  Pull out onto the street.  Turn on the radio.  Who knew I'd start my day with Duran Duran telling me, "all you need is now"?  Followed by a resounding "never say never" from The Fray.  It's funny how the universe just knows sometimes. 

As you can see, I haven't written a blog entry in some time.  I'm in great need of a spring cleaning of sorts; but of my life (ok, and my house).  There are so many things I want to do!  When was the last time I read a book?  Wrote a page of my novel?  Finished a scrapbook page? 

These past few weeks have brought me stories of several amazing people who make me think it's possible to fit it all in (click on their names if you want to watch their story on alwaysgoodnews.ca).  Sonya Di Rienzo, this amazing and quite beautiful female director making short films in Toronto. Don Lucas, a man who went skydiving and white water rafting - when he was in his 80's. Jean Okerese, 88 years young and working with her passion - fashion!  Matt & Bill, two men who are striving to keep your kids safe on the road.... the list goes on. 

Tonight I'm going to go home and see my beautiful son, teach a piano lesson, make and eat dinner.... Then, I'm going to read at least a chapter in the first in the pile of many books I'm dying to read.  It's a start.
