Rekindling my Love Affair with Life.

Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help to create that fact. ~ William James.

It has been far too long since I woke up eager to start my day, with the joyful motivation that comes only from loving life. I had fallen out of love with life. Some people call it "growing up." I call it "Forgetting." (Capital intended.) Gradually I had become aware that I was living in an "every day is no different than the last"  Mind Frame. This, not so suddenly, has become completely unacceptable. The world is Awakening - and I am on my Way. And I need to do my part to create the life we all innately deserve.

 With Awakening comes awareness. And I have been blessed with a new found awareness that life is much too short not to be happy. Cliche sounding I realize, but I am committing - to myself and to the World - that I will rekindle my love affair with life. In fact, I completely refuse not to be in Love with life. Many times I have felt the aching in my heart, the ecstatic feeling of oneness with all. And I want it back. Everyday. For Life. 

Life is wonderfully complicated and chaotically serene.  When one contemplates the perfection of the river's bend, the diversity of the cells in a fingernail, or the strength of the average ant, it is easy to see that there is perfection in every minute detail.  Life is so profuse and intricate. The complex vibrational waves created by a beloved song interacts with the precisely placed drum in the human ear to produce noises of comfort and pleasure. This interaction is only one of the many examples of the inter winding of the perceiver with the perceived. 

To me, there is no greater purpose for us humans than to Experience life. And I feel blessed to be here  experiencing every moment. To me, that is the purpose of life. And I am making the choice to have a great experience. I am no longer letting any opportunity for celebration go unnoticed. I am choosing to find something to be glad about in every passing moment. I am choosing to be blissfully happy. I am choosing to view life through rose colored glasses. I am choosing to be Pollyanna Pinkelstein.

I am choosing to be in Love with Life.                                                          

                         And I hope you choose to do so too.
