The roses always smell...Exhausting, but delightful. The roses always smell better when they're arriving for someone else until that special day when they actually arrive for you. In that instance, when the flowers of life bloom for you, each of us have two choices we can make:<br /><br />We can choose to stop...pause...and enjoy the simple beauty that life has handed us... or... we can choose to ignore them until the next time around because we have too much living to do and not enough life to do it in.<br /><br />Each opportunity we receive in life, whether to slow down and enjoy the chance to observe and witness, or to step in and act to achieve something wonderful, it's rarely the opportunity we think we're looking for - but the rewards for following the path of opportunity are often some of the most compelling and dynamically significant that life can provide.<br /><br />Life for me is a very wild ride, and always will be. Moments of peace between the waves of activity need to be relished, safe-guarded and cherished like a breath of air to a drowning person so that you have enough to smile at the excitement of the next dive into the wild experiences that lie ahead.<br /><br />Cherish the opportunities of life; safe-guard the truly important necessities of life; and relish the secret smiles of life that are shared with you and you alone.Chris Georgenoreply@blogger.com
