Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Living like you mean it is one of those streams of thought that rarely crosses our mind because we are busy carving out a life.
What if living like you mean it was actually how we spent our days?
If it was, it might look like the ordinary Monday i had yesterday. Two hours of writing, then a run to Magic Kingdom and back, before resuming the work day.

Life is hard. Everyone knows that.
When our four-year old Yellow Lab got sick this past summer and died 24 hours later, it was difficult (and still is) to tell whether it was denial or strength that prevailed afterwards.
Let’s go with strength.
And fast forward from July…
The doctor said he can’t say how much time is left.
If you’re reading this, don’t be sad or worried.
Of all the people that you know who realize that life is not a dress rehearsal and that the best way to approach life is to live like you mean it, none understand it more than the guy typing this.
Denial or strength?

What are we capable of? Most of will never know. Sad.
How present do we need to be in order to live as if we were dying?
Too morbid or too intense?
And if we could be that present, would we come alive in a way that felt like hitting the lottery?
And if we could reach that sort of euphoria, would it be sustainable?
Would we become overbearing or inspiring?
Your move.

Why does he or she fuss over exercise, eating well, and sleeping decently?
BFO!

Jim almost died. Well, he actually was dead for three minutes, but was miraculously revived.
Told him long ago that he is inspiring – we’ve been Gold’s Gym Orlando members for years.
What felt like only a month has been 18. He was in a coma for eight weeks and in a hospital for eight months.
Recovering.
A story that can not be told in this post at this time.
A brutal ordeal by any measure.
And insanely lucky to be alive.
And the doctors told him the only reason he didn’t die sooner was because he biked and swam, even while being 100+ pounds overweight.
