Anticipation is fun but can't take the place of actually 'getting there'. Not in my life :-) . Otherwise what's the point of anticipation? Hi all! First time poster here. Sent via BlackBerry by AT& T
We live according to how we feel. When we can rise above the feeling we gain perspective on it (Bill Harris), but not while we are in the middle of experiencing it.
Life is to be lived, and one with passion isn't a bad thing, its simply more 'active' than one that's not passionately lived.
The Seven Deadly Sins are called so because they block energy, which in turn can be lethal. To learn to let go doesn't mean to not participate, it (can) means to enjoy life as it changes. Change is forever. When things stop, they cease.
Pride isn't negative until it becomes excessive. Envy isn't really a problem unless it becomes jealousy.
Everyone at some stage gets annoyed but rage is a whole other 'creature'.
Its OK to feel good about where you manage to get to in life, your accomplishments. Its only a problem if that's where you stop in life, remembering the past, instead of living now, and anticipating the future There's always something new to learn.
