Gratituesday 3.6.18 - Live Now!

I went into writing my Weekly Lists full of positivity and excitement, but as I sit here typing I'm overcome with a bad case of the "I Don't Wannas." I had to push through them yesterday to practice yoga and apparently here I am again. Last Thursday I attended the funeral of the husband of a family friend. I didn't know him all that well and met him once or twice. However I left the funeral home with a kick in the pants - LIVE NOW! As his family spoke about him, it was clear that he knew how to LIVE! He valued generosity and family and hospitality and connection. All things I value, too. While people would speak about me kindly, I don't think they would talk about me in quite that way. And I do think it's important. If I want to make a certain impact and be remembered in a specific way, I need to live that NOW. Dare I see, WE need to live that now. Don't wait. Life is short. Celebrate the good things, and dream big in order to fulfill your desires. Ready to join me?
