Wherever You Go...

We love a parade - the colors, the rhythm, and the way it instantly lifts our spirits. When the Mummers dance down the boardwalk, their sparkling outfits and playful music always create an atmosphere that’s completely, unapologetically alive. That’s the kind of presence Confucius was talking about when he said, “Wherever you go, go with all your heart.” Not just showing up, but showing up fully - with joy, authenticity, and a splash of brass-band energy.
Sheri: The image we captured that day reminded me that we don’t have to “be perfect” to bring joy. The Mummers play with total heart, not polish – and that’s what makes it magic. It’s a good reminder to stop holding back. If I’m going to show up in life - to write, to sing, to love - I want to do it every day with my whole heart.
Bill: Yep, it’s easy to spend so much time preparing for life that we forget to live it. These parade performers are totally in the moment - laughing, dancing, and sharing their positive energy. That’s what going with all your heart means to me: be fully in the moment.
Sheri: We stopped by and saw our young great grand this week, who came bounding across the room with a smile on his face and literally leaped into my arms. I think that qualifies as “going with heart” and living life to the fullest. The only thing I had to do was smile and brace for the landing!
Bill: I call that heart and horsepower. Back at the house, I went to the fridge with great purpose, full of heart and focus. I forgot what I was looking for, but hey, I showed up with passion. That’s gotta count for something, right?
