Words of Wisdom 2/4
Life is so precious! Every single second and minute should appreciated! We should try and make our life as happy and special as possible. On Saturday we lost someone really special-my father in law- and yesterday was my grandmother birthday. She would’ve been so happy to meet my daughter. My father in law and my grandmother are both gone and we will never see them again. They were so different – one very religious, my grandmother and the other one had a full life of adventures I should say – my father in law. The fact that my daughter will not get to meet her grandad as well as I knew my grandmother makes my heart hurt. Sometimes I wish we could live forever.
As you can imagine my Words of Wisdom for today are about all of the above:
“I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or
catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit.”
