Get Busy...

This life has been given to us that we might learn... learn and grow...

I've heard it said that every living thing grows, and when it stops growing, it dies.

As I think about humanity, and the tendencies that we have sometimes that leads us to, how shall I say, stall for time... You know that your present circumstances have all but depleted their usefulness, and that its time to get it and keep it moving, but you just seem to keep dragging your feet. As I think about these kinds of circumstances and situations, I am reminded of a line from the movie The Shawshank Redemption ... "Get busy living, or get busy dying."

Either you have to be about truly living your life (i.e., learning and growing), or you have to be about ending your life. The truth is whether we move fast, or slow, every thought, every word, every action (or inaction) tends to either life or death. Choose Life.

Maybe you're like me, maybe in the midst of your doing and/or undoing, you've lost sight of who you are. Maybe you've lost sight of who you were created and/or called to be. Maybe you've forgotten how to take a chance on you. If this is the case, then maybe you need to hear this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDjle63jGug (Click the link or copy and paste the url into your browser address line)

Maybe you just need a new day, maybe you just need to recognize that if you just look up, tomorrow's sun will let you know your life's not done (http://bit.ly/g8tMUK)
