The "yes to life" tour

After sitting with their dying father, my sons Robin and Mark have decided to go on a "yes to life" tour across America this summer. Don't you just love it? When they told me, I felt this big smile stretching across my face... the brilliance of being confronted with the fragility of our lives. And the clear understanding that TODAY IS THE DAY. TODAY IS THE DAY OF OUR AMAZING GOOD FORTUNE. Why? Well because we ARE and because we ARE HERE and NOW. This is it! This is our lives.

So what about you? Are you saying "yes" to your life and your dreams today?

It's a great exercise to take a look deep inside and find out where you are saying "no" to life... where you are waiting for tomorrow... where you are holding back... And if you are, well then think about death. Think about how little time you have left. Meditating on your own death is one of the most life-affirming things you can do!

I love that my sons have discovered this!
