No words, just love.

 I usually have no problem writing here. I get my inspiration from many mediums and always have my lists and research in order. But this time, this is hard. It is not because of lack of research or organization. It is because I am in such awe of the events that unfolded at a recent Surfers for Autism event I volunteered at, that I just cant explain it. It’s just one of those things that you had to be at to understand.  

It was suggested by a wonderful friend of mine on Facebook, that I start with a list of things from the event and go from there to get out of my block. With this in mind, I decided to just post my list to you because I really don’t know any other way to get the jumble of joy out of my head. So, are you ready? Here we go.

The top 10 things of awesomeness from The 3^rd Annual Surfers for Autism Flagler Beach event.

10. Smile. That’s it. No matter how small the feeling. No matter what. Just smile. It’s ok to enjoy life.

9. It’s ok to just be yourself. You are unique and one of a kind. Embrace it.

8. Sometimes it’s the teacher that gets taught.

7. Do something that is bigger than yourself. Volunteer and help your community.

6. A good hug goes a long way.

5. When you make a promise, follow through.

4. Sometimes you are so intelligent and unique, that less fortunate people have to give it a name.

3. There are great friends out there. Some you just haven’t met yet.

2. Sometimes the answer to life’s problems are answered with salt water and a surfboard.

1. One person can make a difference.

Well. There you have it. None of these are in any order. Just my top ten of the joy in my heart, which just can’t seem to make it into words.
