Life is...

::mood:: happy to have a cup of fresh ground, fresh brewed coffee sitting next to me //big grin//

feel free to remind me someday, if you have to, what life is all about. that it's about the moments. and living each one as they come.

that life is about the intangibles. not just about the measureable results.

that life is not about what you can see from where you sit on your couch watching TV. but about communicating with friends worldwide to see their perspective, too.

that life is not about checking everything off of your todo list. but making time for what counts.

that, yes, there is time for everything you want to do. there will be if you want it bad enough.

that making your life easier is not about saying "no" to every new thing that seeks a portion of your waking, concious thought. but about realizing that somethings are not as complicated as they seem.

that life is about multitasking.

that living as a Jesus follower is not complicated. just hard.

and that hardship in life is normal.

and that normal life is ok.

and that an extraordinary life is not anything you can create for yourself. remember, most of the extraordinary people who we recognize were only realized to be geniuses after they were dead.

that life is about giving it all you've got every second of the day.

and that life is about diversity. everyone's got a different perspective.

that life is not about being right. but about knowing what your basis is. and how that works for you. and being willing to see another perspective.

that life is not about taking personal offense.

that life is about forving.

that life is about loving.

that live is about living.

now.
