With The Wild Ones
Ah, birthdays- another cycle around the sun. A simultaneous beginning and end. A day to reflect, scheme, dream and celebrate.
Ol' Boots turned 31 this year and at his request, we gathered in the enchanted canyon of West Clear Creek. There were no birthday challenges this year, no striving to keep age at bay, no desire to prove that the old boy's still got it. Instead, we laughed. We played. We photographed. We celebrated- not just the birth of one, but the gathering of many in a sacred place.
The best gift you can give to others, to yourself, is space to just Be...
And it's not a post about Boots without some wisdom from the Tao:
"Those who understand others are clever, those who understand themselves are wise."
