Saying Yes to Life...

​The scene before me—a watercolor of serenity—feels like a love letter from nature. A gentle lake, cradled by trees touched with spring's golden-green glow, reflects the world in softened hues. Blush-pink blossoms punctuate the shoreline, while a dock with resting boats waits patiently for summer's laughter. Everything here seems alive with presence, whispering a quiet but powerful invitation: Be here. Be now.

It is in moments like this that I remember how important it is to give my full attention to life. Whether I am sipping coffee at dawn, tending a garden, speaking with a friend, or simply watching sunlight flicker across the water, presence matters. When I pause and let my senses be filled—by birdsong, the scent of pine, the shimmer of wind-touched ripples—I feel the pulse of life itself.

Saying “yes” to life is not just about grand adventures or milestone events. It is about how I meet each ordinary moment. It is about choosing to live fully, embodying the qualities that give life its richness: love, peace, joy, kindness, and faith. These are not abstract ideals, but energies I can bring into every interaction, every task, every quiet hour. When I respond with love, when I listen with peace, when I act with kindness—I say yes.

To live this way is to trust life itself. Even when I do not know what comes next, I trust that something good is unfolding. Even when the road is uncertain, I still walk it with an eager spirit and an open heart. Life is not something to be endured—it is something to be participated in, with both arms open.

This image of the lake reminds me: calm and clarity are always available, if I slow down and pay attention. And just like the mirrored surface of the water, what I reflect into the world—my energy, my presence, my kindness—matters. It touches others. It creates ripples.
​
So today, I say yes to life. Yes to this moment. Yes to being fully alive.

“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.”
