THE ADVENTURE OF LIVING
Fred Crowell - Feb 24, 2020 - info@crowellu.com
Life is meant for good friends and great adventures! Life is an adventure to be lived! Even Aristotle said, “Adventure is worthwhile.”
However, why should it take a catastrophe to wake us up to find it? Often it is a mini-stroke, car accident, cancer, or a heart attack scare that causes us to realize what a great gift life is.
- What will it take for us to ease off life’s treadmill’s speed and live one day at a time?
- What will it take for us to release our pain and live this life adventure?
- What will it take for us to live well despite suffering and loss?
- What will it take for us to realize life is an adventure, not simply an existence?
These are four difficult questions. There are no instant answers. Each performance expert has his version of the path to living your adventure.
Unfortunately, each person must discover his own exciting adventure. This discovery may be a process, but it is awaiting you to find it!
One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure. Where can we apply this adventure of living to our everyday life should there be obstacles?
- To know is the adventure of knowing – Knowledge of God is the richest of all-knowing.
- To love is the adventure of loving – Love changes people for good.
- To serve is the adventure of serving – Serving makes us better people.
- To hope is the adventure of hoping – Hope lifts people and defeats despair.
- To be kind is the adventure of kindness – Kindness is medicine to hurting people.
- To work is the adventure of working – Work is the solution to people’s laziness.
- To play is the adventure of playing – Spontaneous play is the most fun kind of adventure.
Life Ball, not basketball, is the best game on this earth. Like all ball games, Life Ball has an expectation: It requires our best despite difficulty and unfairness. Your best you is your gift to God and to your world. This is the greatest adventure–being the best you.
This adventure of living starts with breathing. Breathe life into your lungs and breathe out your exciting life adventure. No time to waste. Take the leap. My forecast: You will love it!
