Living Fully

LIVING FULLY

Do you feel your life is all it can be? Do you yearn for life to be fuller? A friend of mine recited a poem to me. There was once a cautious gal, Who never romped or played; She never enjoy; From the path she never strayed. So when she passed away The insurance was declined; For since she never really lived They claimed she never died. Of course I don’t think these behaviors describe quality of living, but I do think most people want to experience life as fully as possible. This has always been the case. There is a universal yearning for living life fully and passionately. And, of course, “romping”, “playing”, and “straying from the path” have little to do with how fully one experiences life. Abundant living is more about how we love the other people in this planet, how we care for ourselves and how well we honour God. It has to do with joy and laughter, kindness, forgiveness and peace. It means taking time for what is truly necessary. One man was asked if he believed in life after death. His wife spoke first. “Life after death?” she said. “He doesn’t even believe in life after dinner!” I believe in life after death.
But I also believe in life before death, abundant and full and beginning today.

Have A Wonderful Day and Wonderful Weekend Ahead.
