Mission accomplished…

Well, the Mission 360 fund raiser bicycle ride from Santa Cruz to Malibu went wonderfully! The support crew was FANTASTIC and the organization was superb. It was a beautiful experience and, apart from a bought of food-poisoning, I thoroughly enjoyed it!

I’ve posted a day-by-day account on the fundraiser page located here (http://www.firstgiving.com/toddsnyder).

Thanks for visiting! Please post your “moments of JOY” on the ’share’ page.

Blessings,
Todd

My mom’s birthday!

05/29/2008 (1:54 am) | General

Today is the birthday of one of the most important people in my life: my mother, Rita. I’d like to say that I have so much appreciation for the times I’ve spent with my mom, for the wonderful lessons she’s taught me, the unconditional support I’ve always received from her and for the example of loving, determination and joy she’s been for me.

Thank you, mom! I love you!!

Moments of inspiration

05/23/2008 (2:18 pm) | General

I have been filled with inspiration lately; so many blessings taking place in my life. I feel extremely present and “in tune” with my body, mind, emotions and Spirit. I think about all that is going so well in my life and I feel grateful. I want to share that but, more importantly, I want others to have that for themselves.

I feel that this picture exemplifies, to some extent, my journey; as I look ahead of me, I see that others have tread where I am heading, but I know I have a choice to create my own footsteps… and to reach a destination of my own choosing…

I hope you find joy in creating your path… walking toward your dream - whatever that may be.

Asalaam Alaikum,
Todd
