“Don’t let the plans get in the way of the journey.” This is a phrase that my husband and I repeat like a mantra when we travel. Even on vacation, it’s easy to start making plans and lose the joy in the journey.

Life can start to feel the same way. We focus so much on our plans and where we want to be that we lose sight of the joy along the way.

To borrow a phrase from one of my favorite shows: don’t let yourself catch a case of “destination fever,” find the joy in the journey!
