Meaning of Life

.
What do you think the Meaning of Life is? 

Is it simply, Love?
Is it the pursuit of being an unconditional “lover of all things” (including one’s own self)?…the pursuit of giving and receiving love freely?

Is the Meaning of Life, to share?
To pursue our own happiness, using our own gifts (because we each are already blessed with everything we need), while at the same time giving freely of ourselves to the world (because we are so intimately connected to everyone and everything, we feel whole when we give)?

Is the Meaning of Life to have Hope for more (hope for a greater awareness/understanding/perspective), while at the same time being Grateful for the everything that we already have?
.
Does the Meaning of Life involve just being…being comfortable with being yourself? Could you imagine, if all we were meant to do is simply Be?  If all the Meaning of Life consisted of was listening to and following our hearts?
How wonderful that would be :)
.

Or maybe the Meaning of Life is all about making music together (as is beautifully illustrated in this Under Pressure song from the Happy Feet 2 movie)…

.

Or is the Meaning of Life something else?
And does it vary for everyone?
Or are we all on a different yet identical journey?

.
Does your life feel meaningful?
When do you feel most connected to who and what you were created to be?
.
What are your thoughts on the Meaning of Life?

Standing With Rascal / Running With Oscar

.
What an inspirational athlete . . .

“You’re not disabled by the disabilities you have, you are able by the abilities you have.” ~Oscar Pistorius, the first amputee runner to compete at an Olympic Games (2012 Summer Olympics, 400m and 4 x 400m relay)

.

And a song titled Stand by Rascal Flats.
In honor of the all powerful, forever accessible, driving spark of love in us all. . .

..

.

Happy Standing!   Happy Running!

Dance with me?

I love how this beautiful (Matt Harding & Co.) video below reminds me of how closely connected we are to people from all over the world. This video contains a captivating song with soulful lyrics (“Trip The Light” by Alicia Lemke). It contains joyful people dancing from all over the world. Dancing unites souls. We’re such physical creatures on the surface, but dancing has the ability to transcend our shells, and allows our truest selves to shine…making souls effortlessly connect and flow. I love anything that can do that! And I love this video! It’s such a rewarding 4min and 53second journey. Watch it with me? Dance with me? *Caution: I have two big left feet Lol…but I’m not sitting this one out!…it looks like too much fun! Join me:)
p.s. Cleveland, Ohio even makes an appearance at 3:26! . . .

One of the top 100 pets

.
I think my son loves our cat Zodi. He just announced, “Zodi has to be at least one of the top 100 cats in the world.”

I have to agree with him. She sure is a lovable friend.

Do you have a pet that’s at least one of the top 100 in the world, to you?  If so, please tell me something about them…name, why they are special to you, or anything you’d like to share :)
