"Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough."

This quote goes right to my heart. It reminds me of the many years when I lived my life half-mast out of fear or anger or apathy. But no more. Today I will breathe, taste, sleep, laugh, and get angry, full out––with everything that is within me so that my life will count for something more than mere existence. And to you the same.
