Have you ever seen a flower so pretty you can't take your eyes off of it. One that is so beautiful and glowing with color that all you can do is stare at it. Colors so rich that you can see the inner most beauty of the flower. So radiant and abundant with life , such a beauty that you never thought that it existed. I saw a flower such as this today. It was so glorious and full of color I couldn't help but stare. The pedals on top were gold, and yellow and were glowing with rays from the sunshine. In the middle the colors were red, blue and yellow a reminded me of a mosaic. The stem of this flower was very colorful as well with blue, pink, purple, gold, and shades of blue and black through it all. It gave me a fresh perspective on life for the moment. Or I maybe it was just a freshness to give me a smile and bout of hope that there still something pure in this life. The aroma coming off this flower was sweet, a scent that made me smile and think : sometimes a little bit of beauty goes along and gives you the hope and strength to make it through the day.

May has been shaping up a lot better than April. A lot has been going on and lot of things have that have been in progress are coming into the form I'd been hoping they would. Ive relocated to the town Corona which has been different but not as much as I thought it would be. Im closer to Disneyland which is plus for Stella. And its close to Tara's parents and her work which is also a plus. Living out here has given me the chance to hang out with old friends and make some new ones which is always awesome. Been training a lot and finding my form on the bike again. And when I say finding my form on my bike. More less just feeling good on the bike again, and doing 3-5 hour training rides . Not like I've got these huge races coming up or something of that sort. More less just feeling good on the bike again. I did race yesterday out in Brea, nice to be racing but will be even nicer when I can talk about a notable placing. Made it out to the Amgen Tour of California this past week as well. Super rad to see pro tour bike riders in my own backyard racing on the same roads I train on. May also brought the rediscovery of ebay, which I highly suggest if you have STUFF sitting around. People will buy it. Headed to NYC next week for work and super excited about that. I'm not even sure what were doing out there or where its at, but for me just getting back to NYC every now and again is very refreshing. I grew up in Cali my whole life but have always had a fascination with the city, Manhattan to be matter of fact. Set up a new kit for my Pops that he just came up on. Great 80's yamaha kit with a nice black wood finish. June is also filling up with some good work which includes some traveling as well. May has been a long, productive, and very fulfilling month and can't wait to see what June has in store.
