Quote of the Week
“What is it your plan to do
With your one wild and precious life?”
-Mary Oliver
Your Precious Life
You, and only you, are in charge of the choices you make in your life. We can’t control random events around us, but we can control our own responses.
I am a cancer survivor, and like practically every cancer survivor I know, I found that having cancer has a way of illustrating what’s NOT important in your life. There is a reason that, to this day, I have a sticker on my coffee maker which says ‘Live Joyfully.’ It’s a reminder to think and live that way every single day.
We have one life, and it might be altered forever, later today. Put another way (and not to be morbid) if you died tomorrow, would you be happy about the choices you’ve made?
Seriously. Ask yourself that question. If the answer is no, it’s time to ask ‘why not?’ and start addressing what you find.
Are you honoring your wild and precious life?
