Living life at full throttle.

Can't believe it's gonna be almost 20 degrees colder tomorrow than today! What crazy weather we're having this year. 71 today, 54 tomorrow for highs. And still, no truly cold weather in the forecast. But that's OK. Means I walk many days on the roadside. I have two different places I can walk a treadmill indoors, but always take the option to walk outside down my country road whenever I can. How blessed I am to live in this beautiful environment.....Sara Ban Breathnach writes today about "living life at full throttle." I love that. I try to do that. I even accept that in order to live life at full throttle I have to take naps occasionally. Actually, almost daily. Living life at full throttle means taking advantage of every opportunity that arises which might expand my understanding, my abilities, or my pleasure. It means saying "Yes" and then deciding if that's the right answer. It means smiling until I have a very good reason for frowning. It means paying attention to what is right in front of me and not letting it slide away. It means being awake.....really awake.... to myself and others.
