💞 This is at the top of my love list… 💞
…TRAVELING
… and, road trips are bae…
Yes, indeed—I love them so much.
A quick little story:
I recall my first ever road trip was with my dad—driving my grandmother to Mississippi to see her father. On the drive, dad played smooth jazz music ( that’s how my love of jazz evolved). We stopped at gas stations for gas, bathroom breaks , and snacks; and at restaurants to eat. I was just excited about being with family (dad, grandma, sibling, & cousins)—driving through the various states discovering new territory and seeing different people and culture. At just 10 or so years old, I learned the value of bonding, connecting, exploration, appreciating others, and creating life long memories. What I’m sharing here happened about fifty years ago. Those memories frozen in time and now it warms my heart to reminisce. My dad planted a seed and now it’s my love language.
And resultantly, I still love a road trip for all those same aforementioned reasons. I love creating memories; because those moments we engage in today will eventually become a soothing gift (memories) as time moves on.
Stay tuned as I’ll be sharing how this road trip has calmed my nervous system; and some of the adventures I’ll be engaging in.
Happy Reset Sunday Beautiful Souls, and be well on purpose today, okay. 🫶🏽
❤ ❤️
