A few posts ago, I mentioned I bought a new book...
"This is your life, your one-and-only-life. Over the next five
years, what do you really want to do? What do you really
want to have? What do you really want to be? Where do you really
want to go...You don't have to take life the way it comes to you. You
can design your life to come to you the way you want it. This is
YOUR LIFE, your one-and-only-life, and you don't want to miss any
part of it. So, what is it going to be? You decide. Starting today,
you can make the next five years the most exciting, satisfying,
productive and amazing years of your life so far - or... just another
five years. The best day of your life is the day on which you decide
your life is your own. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift
of life is yours, it is an amazing journey, and you alone are responsible
for the quality of it. Life is about the choices you make...choose wisely.
Live your life on purpose. "

i love that: "when is the last time you did something for the first time?"
i read that somewhere a couple of weeks ago and LOVED it.

Wow. This makes you think. I mean REALLY think.
(On a lighter note, I saw the word "Five" and it made me think of the song Elmo did about the word "Five"... do you remember that? "Five! No Jive!" I think it was on the Elmo-palooza video that my kids watched again, and again, and again....) :-)
But seriously... I'm going to write out some goals and post them up where I can see them. YOU have inspired me.
I so need that! Thanks for sharing.
beautiful post.
another twist is to look back 5 years ago and see what you've accomplished since then. sadly, 5 years ago I was thinking the same things I am now..and not doing it. today is a day to change that. :)
I picked this up in Starbucks the other day and have not had a chance to crack it open. I have a weekend of snow in my forecast so it looks like I will take that break and dig in.
ahhh. 5 years ago. so far away. but it is full.
5 years from now?
i'm on my way.
so are you.
we are blessed beyond measure.
love you.
love the song.
loves this...
kinda slaps ya in the face a bit (it does me anyway)
