Good morning from the Tyrrhenian Sea on the Italian Riviera. Presently getting the act together, which has been difficult due to training (as in travel by train), running, hiking, seeing, absorbing and all the other things that make up an incredible, and very memorable journey (with much more to come). I give you a morning flower that was on display at a market in the beautiful town of Santa Margherita. In a bit, i will bombard you with breathtaking visuals. Ciao for now.

Take a moment and google the title of this very short but succinct, thought provoking NYT article and read. A piece that will make anyone take pause and truly understand the word appreciation and definitely the word impermanence.

The road (or, beach sand) is paved with all kinds of incredible possibilities. Sit behind the handlebars and enjoy your new adventure. Success for you is just a matter of time. Again, you got this!

Yo, H.J. I realize at this time you may feel broken, disheveled, cast aside (like the pic below). Phuck that! Stop! You are a Badass and you will recover. This is an opportunity in disguise. Be positive and explore the possibilities that this moment has afforded you. You are smart and your talents shine like the brightest star. Go get em’. YOU GOT THIS!

My journey began 1186 days ago. I was reminded today by Double-S that in <48 hours this chapter of my life will be coming to a close. I still remember (March 06, 2020) merging onto i-95 and heading to Tallahassee. Wasn't it yesterday? Next chapter?!

Thanks to each and every one of you for sharing this journey and putting up with me. It was a great phucking ride!
