Your one wild and Precious Life!

Recently, I was reading a poem "The Summer Day" by Mary Oliver and her words remain a reverberating echo on the breath of each new day... supporting my courage to act and to be gracious and to be curious.  The words are as follows:

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?

Isn’t it exciting? How wonderful to greet each day with this question! I giggle at the very thought of living the answer to this question. What endless and rich possibilities! Even in dark moments of doubt, fear and limitations these words can light a spark. One spark is all it takes to light a fire in our belly – a fire that will kindle gratitude in our heart and energy in our feet. What is sparking the fire in your belly? I would love to hear!

In the mean time, you may enjoy reading my article about Nanette Johnston and what she is doing with her one wild and precious life... "I'm already beautiful - I just need a hair cut!"
