Life can be unpredictable and can often disappoint when it does not follow our plan. Jobs are lost, marriages end and people become ill and die before we thought we would lose them.
However, faith tells us there can meaning to everything that happens;
and there can even be meaning for the things which
seem to happen only to us when we choose not to simply survive life,
but to live it with passion.
Our lives happen quickly.
I turn 49-years-old last month and this birthday has hit me particularly hard.
The awareness my life is likely more than half over and my 50s will be here before I know it, has given me reason to take an account
of how I want to spend the time I have left.
My plan isn’t to simply survive this time,
but to take my remaining years and make them the best yet.
The things I have learned about myself, as well as the things
I wish I had never learned,
all point to one simple, but powerful truth for me:
No matter what has happened, or what will happen, my life is more fulfilling when it is lived with passion.
Passion for what I believe;
passion to be the best person I can be and an
endless passion for my family and the love we share all provide the power to look at what’s ahead with hope and excitement.
When bad things happen and times become tough,
it is how we adapt to change that will keep our hearts open
and free to live with passion – no matter what.
