Live Life More Fully?

I've been thinking about what it means to live life more fully because, frankly, I feel like there's a lot I'm missing out on. I don't know too much about getting to that point, but I do know this:

I want to give more of these. 


I want to smile more.
(even if I have braces AND bands)

I want more adventure.
 
I want more music in my life.
(I was watching Glee last night and I can't tell you 
how happy I was experiencing the music.)

I want to learn to cook better.
(because it feeds my body and my soul)


Until I am clear in my wants, I will borrow these thoughts from William Arthur Ward:


I will do more than belong - I will participate.

I will do more than care - I will help.

I will do more than believe - I will practice.

I will do more than be fair - I will be kind.

I will do more than forgive - I will forget.

I will do more than dream - I will work.

I will do more than teach - I will inspire.

I will do more than earn - I will enrich.

I will do more than give - I will serve.

I will do more than live - I will grow.

I will do more than suffer - I will triumph.
