It’s often said that life is more about the journey than the destination. Arthur Ashe, to date the only African-American male tennis player to win the U.S. Open and Wimbledon, said “Success is a journey, not a destination.

So, I took the dog for a walk the other day, I had decided to go to the coast with him as he literally runs non-stop for an hour chasing birds and waves then will sleep all day. We were plodding around like normal in the mud and I came across a lump of green […]
