I Thought It Would Take Longer To Grow Up
On September 16th, I completed another round trip on the calendar. A good friend texted me and mentioned that my age is now the same number as a set of tennis that is tied at 6 All. Only problem with this analogy is that the next thing after 6 All is called Sudden Death.
Now that's a sobering thought.
Meanwhile, back to the original subject:
how do we have a meaningful life?
I have been searching for that elusive answer
for way too many birthdays. Here are a few thoughts I have collected along the way.
Love deeply. Forgive quickly.
Kiss slowly. Laugh often.
Dance like nobody's looking.
Apologize when you should. Take Chances. Make mistakes. Follow your heart.
Go with your gut. Tell the truth.
Be respectful to everyone.
Leave the rest to God.
