“I don’t believe you have to be better than everybody else. I believe you have to be better than you ever thought you could be.” Ken Venturi

Today is the last day of our 365 Vegas Meetup. Most are leaving today, or have left already this morning. My husband and I have decided to stay for a couple more days, as we would like to go back to a couple of the places we didn’t feel like we got enough time in . . . such as the Valley of Fire. A group of us decided to get our picture taken and the Las Vegas sign at one end of the Strip. There was quite a line up of people waiting to take pictures, as well as an Elvis personality and two Vegas Showgirls with whom you could get your photo taken if you wanted to pay them for it. We ended up standing in the lineup for quite some time waiting for all of our people to show up. I took this shot of Frank (a fellow 365’er) as we waited. I was so pleasantly surprised when I opened this up on my computer to see this amazing sunburst and the great reflection in his glasses! Score! He kind of reminds me of one of those Secret Agent types in this shot. Or a movie star!

I also love the quote I found for today that seems to totally fit the mood of this photo. Be the absolute best that you can be and you will shine beyond measure. You can certainly use what others have done to inspire and motivate, but don’t compete with others to be the best of the best . . . compete against yourself. Your beautiful aura will then leave a positive impact on everyone who passes through your experience of life. And YOU are the only one who can make it happen . . . GO FOR IT!
