The 365 Guide

Change Your World!

Some people walk around looking as if they have just lost their best friend. These people are communicating to the world that life is, and will continue to be, an unfair experience. Daily existence is a total drag, while life offers nothing in return for their “showing up.” If you know one or more of these individuals (and I’m betting that you do) let me suggest that trying to improve the future of anyone engaged in an exercise in self-pity is an exercise in futility.

 

It is not your responsibility to get these people singing happy songs. Your job is to get your thinking straight, in gear and firmly positioned so that you can contribute to those eager to…

Quest for Adventure: Antarctica Exposed, A Photo A Day

For the next several weeks, I will be experimenting with something new, and that is to post one photo per day from one of the most memorable voyages of my life, Antarctica on Seabourn Quest.

To be fair, a voyage to Antarctica would rank as one of your most memorable voyages, no matter which cruise line you chose to explore the White Continent. I’ve cruised Antarctica on Silver Explorer, an awe-inspiring voyage that I reported on in December of 2013. You can read more about that voyage on our sister site, Live Voyage Reports.
