It is not the things we accomplish that are important, it is the very act of living that is truly important.
—Dr. Bill Jackson—
We’ve been invited to participate in this life, to be present, one to another, and that’s all that’s expected of us. Our successes may bring us personal joy, but our value as persons lies only in our being. But living fully is more than just making an appearance, here-today. It’s celebrating our oneness—our ties to one another—our need for one another’s presence to complete our own.
And we can be a celebrant only when we’re involved and fully focused on the experience. We capture life’s gifts its riches, when we are intent on the moment is fullness. We miss what we most need when our hearts and minds are distracted. All that’s asked of me is rapt attention here, now, to others. And I’ll find the good life.
