With every passing day, I become more aware of how I live my life. I have spent so much of my time living in fear, resisting the things that I have always wanted to do. Coming to face that fear is my biggest challenge, and I have made a vow to live my life, every day, to the fullest. What does the fullest mean, though? What it means to me is to leave a trail of love behind me wherever I go; it means that I will:

“Dance like nobody’s watching; love like you’ve never been hurt. Sing like nobody’s listening; live like it’s heaven on earth.”

~ Mark Twain

How are you living your life?

    Hey Marva! I feel like I'm finally getting into the groove fo things. It's been crazy with my mom passing a few months ago and my sis being sick. I've just been all over the place. I'm settling down and thinking about what I'd like my life to be and I'm excited!

    Great post!
  • I love that particular quote of Mark Twain's - and I send kudos to you for facing your fears and reaching for freedom! I hope you will post your progress here!

    Like you I have let my fears get in the way of a fulfilled life - but no longer! I have made a commitment to changing my thinking, building my trust and living a life that is once again joyful and filled with my passions!

    A few months ago I started a series of "inspirational" abstracts where I paint on a little inspirational quote that fits the image for me. One of my favorites I'm actually going to keep (I sell my art and rarely get to keep one!). It has "Dance naked" "Sing outside the shower!" and other freeing thoughts on it that speak to my new goals.

    I've also taken my artist's life blog, LIFE IS LIKE ART - IT'S ALL IN HOW YOU LOOK AT IT, and added the element of my goals for a new way of life through my art and then I joined the Boundless Living Challenge!

    You go Girl!
  • Oh, one more thing - syncronicity is at work here - Sunday is the day I post to my Life Is Like Art Blog - with my inspirations, realizations and gratitudes! Sunday Inspirations is a perfect meme for that blog and goal - the Universe/God brings you what you need!

    Oh, and sorry for the double entry up there! Have a great Sunday Marva!
