A Long drive Is Good For the Soul

By David Champignon

Good morning everyone. My wife Jenny and I recently went on a long drive first from Pennsylvania to New Jersey.  Then from New Jersey to Disney World with stops in North Carolina. I purposely unplugged from YouTube on my phone. I stopped myself from internet surfing to sightseeing as we made our journey. As we crossed states I observed the fall foliage. Like many people, I am of this recent generation. I am guilty of not unplugging and not letting my soul breathe. I don’t let my eyes see all the wonders in this country. Now I realize some people are not able to take long drives through swaths of the country to get to one of the most magical places on earth

Yet, I believe it is helpful to take yourself to a place where you can truly treasure moments wherever you are on this earth because I believe it is important to connect not only with yourself and your inner soul but it is important to connect with those who love you simply because they love you. It’s important to love them back unconditionally. Plus not only is America a beautiful place but the world is a rich tapestry of land and sea and other beauty that may not be present forever. So, with eager hearts and souls take whatever opportunity you can to do something unusual and renew yourself. In whatever way is meaningful to you and those you love with all your heart.

See you next time
