If We Only Have One Life, Why Waste It Doing Something
That Doesn't Make us Happy?


It's the weekend and as promised we are at the beach,
but before we get on to the weekly Beach post I would
like to share with you a quick how-to guide
which can help you on your way to
obtaining freedom and happiness.

I get a lot of people commenting on how they wish they could do what we are doing and their excuses for not doing it were the same as ours.

  • We have a big house (that doesn't make us happy)

  • I have a job (that bores me to death)

  • The kid's (who really only want their parents love and attention)

  • I will miss my friends (who also hate their job, house & miss their children)

So whats the big secret? how did we manage to break away and find all these open doors to an abundance of freedom and happiness?.

My conclusion is simple, if you really want to be free and happy then just live the life you have always dreamed of, and start now!.

As a lot of you know I had a bad start in life and if you had told me, at 15yrs old, when I was homeless on the streets of central London, that I would go on to live a dream life and would have everything I could ever want or need, then I would not believe you.

But the fact is that once you realise what it is that holds you down in that dark place you can remove it and move on, and it's that simple.

The house, the job and the T.V were destroying our
lives so we removed them and moved on!

It's very simple really, you take a pick from the 100 near-by beaches
and spend the weekend there in your house on wheels.

Last weeks beach post.

The week before last week's beach post :)

I hired a surfboard and thought it was
a good day to finally try surfing for the first time ever!!! :)

Luckily I had a friend with me who showed me the ropes but it
was very choppy and we decided to give it another shot in the morning.

Watch out for part II of this post if you want to see me
eat some waves. :)

And then of course we have Marley, the most sociable 7yr old
on the planet who can meet a group of people
and with in minutes have them all burried
in a hole laughing their heads off..

And then we had Little Ronnie & Nayeli
who were making a cozy home for Mr Crab.

We chose to be with our children
instead of chasing money and it's paying off.


Peace and love to the World.

Surfing = Happiness

After catching my first little wave today I have to agree with your equation :)

There are very few things in life that we do for pure joy and that bring us closer to nature. The feeling of catching your first wave is incredible and, i can tell you from experience, it gets better and better as you progress :)

Wow great post? You are fantastic, your post and pictures remind me of the memories of my childhood when I was playing with the sand ,making houses with the friends, it's was the greatest days. But now the dayly routine work, fair of service, no freedom to live my life any way. You are so powerful and genius friend heads of to you for your courage and to such a bold decision. Thanks for the nice pictures of your trip which are great inspiration for everyone .Besides being great you are a very good human being, who has a great passion and love for people, I know friend one day you will be a hero to the people of our community. I wish you a great success and happiness in every walk of life. Thanks.

Thank you @maya7, I'm glad I could spark childhood memories with this post. :)

Bless.

Thanks for the nice reply my dear friend. I have made a little photo shoot and share it in my post ,you are my best friend so I really enjoy if you like my work. Please come to my post and see it and tell me how it is look like. Wish you a very beautiful time ahead my dear friend.

You are correct Mark, it IS that simple.
Recognize your programming, accept the default, then discard the obligation.
We are all, sentient beings, obligated by biology.
Further obligated by society's expectations...
Live incredibly happy and well, my brother!
Change society's expected obligation.
Foment a NEW socially recognized expectation.
Change the world.
1 person at a time.
You're still rocking that glorious beard brother...
RESPECT!
@scan0017 YOUKNOWWHATTIMEITIS 😜

This is the best post to knock on my head about my dream life. Great kids + super cutie... aww what a life man... really envy you. Hugs and kisses for the lovely kids🤗

Thank you @ainie.kashif

If you can dream it, you can do it :)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh such a beautiful post!

You really are living it up Brother. So nice to see a family happy, free and adventuring through life!

Blessings~*~

You took control of your life, and now you are benefiting from it. True most people will envy you, but also most people are too afraid to take giant steps themselves. And yeah, the downside is what is always hoovering in the back of your head.
I say hooray to freedom bro, do what you gotta do

Greetings from the Caribean, my chosen place to be

You took control of your life, and now you are benefiting from it.

Oh yes!

Caribbean, nice!

Live the dream

Nice post! I belive that the worst thing that we all should try to change in our lifes is our MINDSET. We are trapped by all these things you say, house, work, people around.. If it does not make you happy, leave it! Is like the cow story, only when the cow dies the people begin to move on. Congratulations for living your own life, if all the people were doing the same, the world would be much happier and better.

Thanks for the feedback @cryp2me

if you try to find freedom and happiness, your entire life will engaze about this question, where you get a chance, enjoy!

What a lovely post! I wish I could someday say that about my family...
Someday soon! For now, we'll work our but+s off here at the desert, repay our debts and work ourselves to financial freedom. 😩

Great idea by @markwhittam
Wel done and perfect work my dear friend...
Upvoted...and specialy followed you...
