Be here. Be yourself.
The Practice of Living
For much of our lives, we’re busy becoming. Building careers. Raising families.
Meeting responsibilities. Working toward the next thing.
And then, somewhere along the way, things begin to change.
The children grow up. Careers wind down. Relationships change. We lose people
we love. We begin to recognize, perhaps more clearly than ever before, that our
time here is precious.
And we may find ourselves asking different questions.
What matters most to me now? How do I want to spend my days? What does it
mean to live a good life?
I’ve been asking these questions myself.
After more than six decades of living, coaching, loving, losing, learning, and
beginning again, I’ve come to believe that a meaningful life isn’t necessarily
something we achieve.
It’s something we learn to experience.
To be present for the life we’re living. To be more fully ourselves. To appreciate the
people we love and the ordinary moments that make a life.
And to remain open to all of it, even the uncertainty.
