As I read through the definitions for the word “live”, I came to the realization that for some time now I haven’t really been living life to the fullest. Sure, I enjoy a pretty blessed life, but this past year (filled with its many challenges) shook me up. . . and I didn’t appreciate it. After a long series of one thing after another, I felt pretty beat up by the end of 2012. I’ve never been more happy for the opportunity to start a new year. 2013 will also have its challenges, but I choose to “live” my life with intention and a much more different attitude.
