Upon entering the Disney Family Museum in San Francisco, along the wall you saw a quote by John Tucker Battle. "The greatest wealth a man may acquire is the wisdom that he gains from living. and sometimes out of small beginnings, come the forces that shape a whole life." We are always so caught up with how much money we can make, we forget how wealthy we all really are. Learn to become present and have gratitude with your days here on earth, and you can become some of the most wealthiest people in the world.   12/25/2016

After completing a Feng Shui Consultation in Brooklyn Heights, NY I walked over to the Brooklyn Bridge Park. I have to say I was in awe. Its not everyday I get to see an backdrop of New York City when playing basketball. Besides that, the park also offers roller hockey rink, kayaking, the Greenway for walking, running and bike riding. During the warmer seasons, you can also enjoy free concerts, dancing and more! Parking can be a bit tricky. If you are lucky you can park along the side streets, otherwise they have metered parking near the park. When you visit, be sure to walk or ride over the Brooklyn Bridge.
