The attached video clip is very moving and thought provoking.

We stay grounded in the basic fundamentals of move, act, and repeat
in our pursuit of goals.

Would you live your life any differently if you ultimately didn’t have all
of those years ahead of you?

Take a look at this video clip:

A true sense of gratitude sure pushes stress to the side.
... and, puts a little extra wind in your sails too.

While watching this I couldn’t help but remember the day my wife was told she had three months to live.  Together we chose to accept what we had no control over and live and love life for as long as we could. 

While she couldn’t be saved - our experience of choosing how we would feel changed me forever. 

Some folks question how our family could continue to grow and thrive, how I could “motivate” others, and how I could find the perfect woman (again), fall in love and get married in April.  How could I possibly be happy?

It’s just a simple choice.  Randy Pausch made that choice - and in choosing to live life and focus on his family he has helped millions around the world find happiness in their life.

Thank you for sharing.

Awesome video - makes you think about what is really important in life.  There are certainly some take away messages for me in there!!
