living life your fullest~

over the years

i am sure

a thousand times or more

i have said

to myself and others

when i am 80 years old

sitting on my front porch

swinging

i don't want to sit and think

where did my life go

how did time go by so quickly

why did i let all those years pass me by

why did i let so many moments

never come to be

stephen mackey

this thought arose once more this morning

as i was reading one of my daily meditations

~LIVING LIFE FULLY~

She wants to live for once.

But doesn't know quite what that means.

Wonders if she has ever done it.

If she ever will

Alice Walker

have you ever ponder such thought

do you ever wish you were living more to your fullest

embracing each and every moment

savoring all that comes to be

or

do you allow the days to just float on by

with no memories to be made

or wishes to come true

Faerwillow

as i read further she says

"Most of us would like to live life fully.

Yet when it comes to putting those words into practice,

we are not quite sure how."

"We have to come back to the realization that only

WE

know how to live

OUR

lives fully

We can accept guideposts

and

ultimately

living our lives is up to us"

"EVEN IF WE HAVE NEVER DONE IT,

the knowledge of hoe to live our lives fully

llies deep within us"

Anne Wilson Schaef

some powerful words this morning

a reminder

a reflective thought to ponder

a question to ask yourself

so today i am making a list

{yes a list cause i do much better with such}

of things i want to come to be for the rest of this month

and i shall working making them come to be

~what about you~
