#TakeABreak Get on Your Back, Baby!

Remember when you were a kid during the summer and you would lay on your back finding animals in the shapes of clouds?

My friends & I would lay on the front yard, school ground, vacant field, beach, or dock  and "see things". Sometimes one of us would doze off due to being so relaxed. Don't you wish you could bring that feeling back? Well, you can.
I was on my back doing my morning yoga when I something caught my eye. (Other than Maggie's head).
I saw Shamu. A cloud looked just like a statue of the famous killer whale I bought at Sea Workd when I was 10.

As I lay there, I saw more.
Three shapes reminded me of koi fish. There was a koi pond in the middle of the hotel we stayed at during our honeymoon. The critters were literally came to the surface begging for treats from anyone who stopped to admire them. Three clouds "looked like" those fish.

My heart filled with warm fuzzies with the memories of our honeymoon. I rose from my yoga mat with a smile on my face. 

Take a moment and lay on your back, gaze at the clouds. Have a friend, a child or your honey join you on this exercise. 

What do you "see"? What do you think of? How do you feel? Did it wake up the kid in you? Is your heart full?

Come on...get on your back,  baby. 
I double-dog-dare ya!
