Life In Vivid Color

How I am feeling right now. Trying to get out of a rut.

Live life passionately.

Savior every tiny morsel of life.

Sing at the top of your lungs.

Dance as if you were on fire.

Love with every fiber of your being.

Don’t waste time.

 

Don’t say, “I’ll do it tomorrow.”

Don’t settle for second best.

Don’t take no for an answer.

Don’t say, “Next time.”

Don’t hide your love.

Take a chance.

 

Pack-up the car and go.

Go on a cruise.

Backpack through Europe.

Run a marathon.

Run a triathlon.

BE YOU!!!

 

Whatever makes you happy; do it.

Don’t hesitate.

Don’t delay.

Make the best of every second.

Achieve your impossible dream.

Live life in vivid color.

Very good advice for any stage of life. What makes your message especially powerful is the way you bring in many possibilities that could appeal to all kinds of people in all situations. My marathon might not be your marathon, but getting thru it feels just as invigorating & life-affirming. This happens to be my personal anthem. I did a lot of wild-a*s stuff in my life, then I lost the ability to walk for a few years recently. One reason I didn't get depressed over it is becuz of all the mountains I climbed before I couldn't anymore. You never know when it might be the last time. I love that this is your way of catapulting out of a slump (((HUGS)))

Thank you.

A well written piece of advice for all of us.

As you have written, the overiding message is rather simple: Life is short. Make the most of it while you can.
Many of us are guilty of taking life for granted. We get so caught up in the mundane aspects of daily living that we forget to really live, and appreciate the gift we have.

You have written a very positive piece, one which has lessons that we all could apply to our lives to make them richer and more fulfilling. Nice work, my friend.

An encouraging piece, really effective in its conviction of how a life should be lived. Your last line - also used as the title - is a great end to the poem, capturing everything that's been said and everything you mean into one line. Great write.

Good advice. Reads nice and carefree with a tad of a positive demand yet easier said than done.

[JBoone]

Thank you and true, it is easier said than done.

[V]

Unfortunately I know. You're welcome.

[JBoone]

That is unfortunate and I know it too.

[V]

Maybe everyone. I think people who write or express themselves in similar ways of creating art tend to think more and overthink and reflect themselves and other people's behavior maybe a little too much which might block them off/hinder them from being more carefree and develop a more positive attitude towards life like dashing into it no matter what, at least that's what I think and experienced.

[JBoone]

I don't disagree at all. I see it that in myself too. I am hoping to jump in with both feet one day but I overthink it.

[V]

Yeah me too. Many people on here, I guess. Writers are thinkers and those are careful people.

[JBoone]

True and this is a safe place to share our words without getting hurt.

[V]

Yes agreed

[JBoone]

Glad we agree and have the honor to share our words.

[V]

I'm glad to be here and share too.

[JBoone]

That is a good thing.

Make most of life, change the world for good, and work to be better every day! Good lessons you have! (Is the 2nd line word supposed to be "savour"? I'm just wondering about that.)

[JBoone]

Yes you are right. Thank you very much.

[GalaxyGhost]

You're welcome!
