Do you live life to the fullest? Do you explore and try new and exciting things?
I wonder do we really get to comfortable in our lives? Do we take the chances we need too and really explore our life and test our comfort zone? I know I don't. I have fear, fear of getting hurt or in trouble, fear of the unknown, fear of rejection...now that is baggage. How do we get past it and take the plunge and jump into life. I'm still trying to get my son to eat different foods! Do they pick up on our fear and do kids get to comfortable too? I always tell my son to take chances and explore new games, sports and food. I hope he takes after his dad who really lives life.
I give my sister tons of credit for her courage, she got on a plane and traveled to England alone! She did some exploring, shopping, met new and interesting people and even went to a Pub alone! WOW I'm just driving into Manhattan alone.
Life should be a celebration a real Party. Now how do we go about it? I have decided this year will be my celebration of life. I celebrated my 45th birthday and my husband started it off with a bang by throwing me a surprise party...I even got up and played with the band!!! Now I'm basically an outgoing person but, I hate being the center of attention, go figure. I have now taken my first baby steps...watch out the Party is about to begin.
Would love to hear how you celebrate life.

WOW! Love your new found outlook on life. I wish I had my "ah ha" moment. I'm still waiting for that. I'll be 40 in May and I feel like life is just passing me by. I try and "celebrate life" when I can, but most of the time I'm on "auto pilot". I need to step back and take a look at everything and find ways of bringing more "celebration" back into my life.
I used to be a lot like your sister years ago. I would have though nothing of traveling in Europe alone. I used to be so adventurous. Not anymore. I guess having a hubby and kids has made me a more cautious person.
Great post!!!
