| Boyds - Home in the Country! |

| Nearby woods |

| Neighboring farm |
Even in the dead of winter, all I have to do is go outside and walk a little ways and I feel refreshed and renewed in spirit. We are blessed to live in a beautiful area with farmland, woods, and a bike trail nearby. The apple orchard behind our old farmhouse adds to the charm of our "home in the country" as our town is called. Just take a look at the images here and I think you'll agree. But no matter where you live, there is beauty, if you just hunt it out. Isn't that true?
I love stumbling upon beauty outside, and also, beauty in books. I recently came upon a helpful little volume, published just a few years ago. It's entitled, How Successful People Think, by John C. Maxwell. And it delivers what it promises. It's a helpful dose of left-brain thinking that brings the concept of how to think out a vision down to Earth and within reach. And it's full of quotable turns of phrase, such as this:
"Big thinkers who make things happen also create possibilities for others."
