Today's thougt.................. (11)
We all know there is only one shot at living this life. Each has to find a way to enjoy the trip we take. I am not an adventure nut, but I do enjoy travel and experience all this world offers. I am careful to fight the fights I wish to enter and not the ones I wish to avoid.
Great post this morning!

HJFinAZ: One cannot have wisdom without living life.
--Dorothy McCall
Living life means responding, wholly, to our joys and our pitfalls. It means not avoiding the experiences or activities that we fear we can't handle. Only through our survival of them do we come to know who we really are; we come to understand the strength available to us at every moment. And that is wisdom.
When we approach life tentatively, we reap only a portion of its gifts. It's like watching a movie in black and white that's supposed to be in Technicolor. Our lives are in color, but we must have courage to let the colors emerge, to feel them, absorb them, be changed by them. Within our depths, we find our true selves. The complexities of life teach us wisdom. And becoming wise eases the many pitfalls in our path.
Living life is much more than just being alive. I can choose to jump in with both feet. Wisdom awaits me in the depths..
Just make sure it is deep enough.--Dorothy McCall

Good post, HJ...and so very true. The deeper it is, the more we gain from it. I live life in technicolor...black and white is just too boring.
