Life is Great!

Life is Great!!

L

ately I’ve been hearing about people who declare how great life is to them even in the midst of tragedy. One lady said she fought cancer so hard simply because she loves life. An elderly gentleman said that there were so many places to go and things to do, and people to meet. What an excellent attitude to exhibit!

I’ve set out to list a few reasons I love life:

·         Beautiful sunrises and sunsets

·         My beautiful and loving wife

·         Children

·         Grandchildren and great grand children

·         Brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, relatives, friends

·         Good food

·         Fond memories to share and embrace

·         Beautiful mountains and deserts

·         The wonder of creation, as a whole

·         Health whether good or bad

·         Fresh air

·         Ocean breezes

·         Rain and snow

·         Even lightning and storms can become beautiful

·         The goodness of God, His mercy, forgiveness, love and grace

·         Creation that is never exhausted in its beauty

·         Sunshine

·         Moon and a clear starry night

·         Warm summer breezes

·         Hot chocolate before a warm fireplace

·         Christmas, New Years, Easter and all the holidays

·         Birthdays

·         Parades

·         Fresh mountain air and snow capped mountains

·         The smell of fresh air after a rain

·         Camping trips

·         Ocean cruises

·         Exploring new worlds

·         Learning new things

·         Clouds and their unique shapes

·         Airplane, trains, cars

·         Fish and wildlife

·         Animals (domestic)

Yes, without a doubt life can be miserable, but if we focus on that which is good and beautiful we to can display an excellent spirit of loving life!

God has given us life to enjoy to the fullest. Those who love life enjoy life.
