Every day is the eve of the next day. What if the next new day is worth celebrating the night before?

As we near June, i’m writing today’s posts knowing they will publish December 31.

It’s a weird, yet fun, reality juxtaposition.

Gonna continue to enjoy it without expectations.

Calling Montreal

iPhone call log
Amira Drias called me at 1:07 PM. Our call was scheduled via Calendly for 1:00-1:15 PM.
Canada Immigration website
Used the CANADIM.com website to self-assess what i will need at Canada’s airport Customs process when i arrive June 3. Note: Arriving June 3 instead of June 4. Keynote Speech is June 5. Arriving the day before the speech doesn’t provide a buffer for potential travel delays. So, arriving June 3 provides the buffer needed. i fly back to Orlando June 6.

dad

Not only is nature a poor person’s gym. It’s also their place of worship. Nature’s a great counselor too.

Spending time in Nature is for the wealthy.

The ‘time’-wealthy.

Perhaps millions of small flat stones on a 400-meter-long beach.

Most of today’s photos are from Cheryl.
11-second video: A nice day for skipping stones. Not a bad location either.

Your emotions are your map. Your actions are your legacy.
