Don’t Fear Dying, Fear Not TRULY Living

- Be a DO-er!

moment we do, that’s when our brains die. Always be open to other people’s ideas and learn from experience­s.

All the ideas in our head will remain just that, ideas, if we do not do anything about them. It is important to express our ideas and then translate them into action. Travel, see the world. Learn a new skill. Take a class. There are so many things to do to keep us all happy and occupied. Just do it!

Overall, we may have a finite number of hours on this earth, but that doesn’t mean we cannot be infinitely happy. The clock is always ticking! A second, once gone, will never ever come back so what we do with our time is vital. Will we merely exist or will we truly live and thrive? The choice rests in our hands. Choose wisely.

Personally, I think what sustains me through each day are the prayers I offer to Him each morning, thanking Him for all His blessings and asking Him to protect me and my family from all sorts of ailments and harm, including death. And it really works as I can feel Him keeping us safe and sound even when we are asleep. The thought that GOD is always there to take good care of me is truly comforting for a mere mortal like me.

As a side note, to my American friends: Happy Thanksgivi­ng! Counting blessings will always be my favorite kind of math. For comments and suggestion­s, please hop-on over to: www.orochronic­les.com/ blog/
