living

" i don't want to get to the end of my life
and find that
i lived just the length of it.
i want to have lived the width of it as well."


a new day to:
make discoveries
joy in
explore
appreciate
be feisty
do something new
amaze yourself
be brave
be daring
fulfill a dream
start something new
be patient
relax
see things differently
put positive energy to
live
take flight
be passionate
let go
throw some bright colors on this "canvas" of ours


the older i get, the more i want to seize the day!
