Live the treasure

Open your eyes and see the treasure, the treasure of being alive today. It’s sitting right in front of you. It’s here this very moment, ready to be lived. And it’s overflowing with fabulous possibilities.

Fill this day with passion and with purpose. You are so very fortunate to have it, so make it count for all it’s worth. Get yourself involved in life. Don’t just sit back and watch the world go by. You have the opportunity for so much more. Seize that opportunity and run with it.

Right this very moment you’re experiencing that precious, priceless, miraculous state of existence known as life. Your life is so densely packed with magnificent possibilities. Make them happen. Make them real. Make them yours.

Stop wishing for good fortune. See the great and wonderful fortune that is already yours. Find joy in the little things as you steadily pursue the biggest dream you can imagine. Today is here for you to live. What a great and wonderful treasure, and it’s yours this very moment!
