Today I turn 34 which I'm so very glad for as I must confess 33 was, for lack of a better term, ass. But tonight I'm at an estate built in the 1600's as a summer residence in a beautiful part of Ireland. I've had champagne and gluten free cake with two sets of flowers in my hotel apartment. So far, 34 is promising.

The photo is blurry, I know, but I think it just captures how I've been lately - always in motion. People always ask how I do so much and wonder if it's a sugar daddy or magic pill. The truth is it's just a love of life and lots of doing because I believe life is made up of choice, not circumstance and I choose to do anything and everything I can think of.

There are so many things I want to do, places I want to see, people I want to know that I am always busy either trying to figure out how to do things or doing them. Which often makes for some blurry times but I kind of like it that way. I couldn't be happy just thinking of ideas and wondering how they'd turn out. I wouldn't be happy feeling like I wasn't able to do something because of something else. By choosing not to focus on circumstance or what others say is possible, my life and all that I do is possible.

And it leaves me with this wonderful blurry thing called life.
