I have never seen so many young people, pre-occupied with dying. It's called "Life" for a reason. It's meant to be lived.

Challenges are there for our good. I used to run from them like crazy. Avoiding them at all cost...until I learned to accept them and see them for their purpose. If we didn't have problems, we'd never learn lessons, accomplishment, growth, develop our character, learn patience, perseverance, humility, appreciation for life, set goals, make progress, gain wisdom or strength, have self-esteem and confidence, learn to be thankful, or relish and celebrate the joy of victory. I'm not worried about dying. I'm too pre-occupied with enjoying the gift of living. And if you're too caught up in dying, you haven't begun to live. Life is not about finding yourself. It's about creating yourself and the life you want. Positive choices. God gives us the gift of life. It's up to us to fill it.
