Each of us are born into a life of challenges

There are ways to transcend our challenges!

.

Often,

when we transcend these challenges,

we gain a sense of accomplishment.

Our confidence builds, so we become stronger

and able to overcome even harder challenges.

Through our experience of a challenge,

whatever knowledge we had

now becomes an unalienable Wisdom.

As wonderful it is to transcend challenges…

We often tire of facing the many variations of those challenges when they seem to incessantly keep knocking on our door.

This is when we need to develop a way of looking at the world that will help us not to be so affected by the chaos of our the world and all it’s challenges.

At the start of each day, tell yourself:

May I be aware of the boundless space that is my inherent Nature,

to allow all beings and situations be as they are without effecting my well-being.

When this perspective is fully realized…

We then become free to

Love all, serve all and create no sorrow.

A Grace that genuinely feels Divine will naturally radiate from our

Hearts, Mind, Body, Spirit, speech, and actions.

Thus,

Making this world a better place…

One smile at a time.

The Start of 2020

Our business was doing great, but we still couldn’t afford to buy a house or a condo. Renting in Maui for another 30 years was not an option we wanted to take. Then, Bobbie Jo suggested we buy a sailboat that is comfortable to cruise and live in. By the end of January, we started looking for our new home.

After a long search, we found our dream boat in Mazatlan, Mexico. COVID-19 was not yet a concern when our boat hunt began, but masks were starting to appear at airports by the time we flew to Mazatlan. Originally, we had planned to get the boat ready as fast as possible to cover a full calendar for the busy wedding season. However, it was apparent our business was going to tank amid the pandemic, and the struggle went on until the end of the year.

Luckily, we scored an awesome condo for only $19 a day at Mazatlan. On the 10th day of our stay, we received the news that all harbors will be closed the next Monday morning. We thought we’d be stuck in Mexico longer, but another sailor advised us to leave before sunrise.

We felt the adrenalin of escaping the Mexican harbor master just before the sun rose that faithful day. The seas were rough as waves were building up in the tight channel that led us to the open ocean. We ended up anchored off an adorable little isle just a mile offshore. We enjoyed cruising to many spectacular anchorages and cute villages on our way to Puerto Vallarta, where we would depart for Maui on May 7. On May 30, 2020, we completed our 24-day passage from Mexico to Maui.
