Quotes 2

When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, “I used everything you gave me.” -Erma Bombeck

Be connected to your world. Whatever you are doing in this moment, really experience it. Too much of our lives are spent in the “maybes” or “could bes” - so much so that the joys we could experience now are overlooked and lost in the reflections and yearning for the “never weres” in our lives. Living is a verb, a word of action, and not just a period of sleepwalking between dreams and disappointments. Whatever you do, do it, truly experience it, make it a moment that matters to you so when you do look back, you have a treasury of accomplishments savored, and not unhappy regrets of lost time and opportunity.
