This is the life I chose for myself and my family. So I am going to call it intelligence.

Yeah. I like that.

Last night, as we were enjoying a magical sunset in Playa Guiones, complete with a double rainbow, I couldn’t help but think how lucky I am. But then I remembered, luck has nothing to do with it. I made this life happen, not alone, but still, I made it happen. This magical existence was something I dreamed up for decades and worked hard to make happen. The same goes for my little family. We work hard to be healthy and happy. And its moment like these, on the beach at sunset, where we reap the benefits and the radiant joy just comes oozing out of our pores.
