Make sure to Take Time for Yourself!

The mighty Ohio river!

Running across it and “run touching” Indiana from Louisville was cool, and emotional. Rivers and water bodies make me emotional especially free flowing water; maybe something to do with my water sign.

KY is the 30th state in the US I’ve stayed in for at least a night, but mostly 2+ nights starting with NY, NJ, CT, MA, ME, VT, NH, RI, DE, MD, PA, VA, WV, IL, NC, SC, GA, FL, LA, OH, TX, IN, MO, CO, HI, NV, AZ, CA, WA, KY.

Have stayed 5 days - 2 weeks each in Italy, Switzerland, Mexico, Canada, France, England, Spain, Bermuda, Fiji and obviously India and the US home.

Have called NY, NJ, MA, NC home over the 30 years in the US.

Visited 3 provinces in Canada, and a couple in Mexico.

Each visit has been enlightening from a history, culture, and ways of the people standpoints and also have had so much fun and excitement!

Recently visited India with my wife and son; their first visit to India. We met 50 of my closest family, and toured 6 cities and towns. So grateful they got to meet a smattering of people I had the privilege of growing up with.

Massively grateful for so very much; words don’t begin to capture it.

Not bragging (although am sure there’s a tinge of that involved), but this is to encourage everyone to have fun, enjoy life, embrace different cultures and soak up getting to know and appreciate how rich this Earth is.

Don’t work so much and be so dedicated to it that you don’t also make time to rejuvenate yourself or have some plain old fun 🙂

Travel may not be your thing. Do your thing. Live and LOVE YOUR life; whatever your focus!

Rethinking Savings: How the Infinite Banking Concept Can Help You Build Wealth and Eliminate Debt

What if you could be your own bank? It sounds like a bold idea, but that’s exactly what the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) is all about. It’s not magic—it’s a powerful financial strategy that allows you to save, grow, access, and reuse your money … on your terms. Let’s break it down. The Infinite Banking Concept uses a dividend-paying whole life insurance policy as a private banking system .

This cash value grows tax-deferred , and you can borrow against it at any time—without needing approval. Why “Be Your Own Bank”?

Stay on top of your health - Always!

My throat started feeling tingly Monday afternoon. By late afternoon, I had started feeling weaker, but still good enough. I was quite calm. All I had to do was go home and take my concoction for colds/etc; it would stop whatever was brewing. My concoction: Oscillococcinum (homeopathic cold preventer available @ CVS), Echinacea & Goldenseal (herbal supplement available @ WholeFoods), and Emergen-C (available again @ CVS or @ grocery stores). Apparently, whatever I had was fast moving. The next morning, there was no way I was going to be able run my 5 miles. Just getting out of bed was HARD. And it would be irresponsible to pass on whatever I had to others if I were able to go out and do my job. Decided to take the day off. Slept most of the day, because that's all I could do. Today, feeling much better. Cooked some ridge gourd curry to eat with the rice I had made. Used a recipe that gave it wonderful flavor, even the celery I had added to the mix. My run training goal tomorrow...
