There is little justice-particularly for people who lack money. "Justice" is merely a notion unless made real by those empowered to do so. It is true that our justice system is the best in the world, yet it remains an imperfect system and, like each of us, must be a constant work in progress. All of us must continue to work on it - lest the vision of our founding fathers shall become a mere chimeric notion. We must also remember that everything that we do requires "sweat" and "mentorship!"

Open Ocean Triathlon

Well ... I participated in my first "open ocean" triathlon. Unlike pool swims, or even lake swims, the open ocean is much more challenging and much more fun! The weather was perfect, the water beautiful and my time SLOW! I need to get back in shape ... as you can see by the photo on the left part of the page where I am gasping for air after climbing a hill. Remember, training the mind means also training the body!
