Do you live your life according to the Someday Principal? (As in, "Someday I'll do this".... "Someday I'll do that"). Everyone does this, to one extent or another. I know I do, although I'm trying hard not to.
We're reading a great book in my small group called One Month to Live - it's all about living life fully in the present, because our time on the planet is finite and if you wait for "someday" to begin living, you're going to be disappointed time and again. TODAY is all we are promised.

Here are some great quotes....
- Death is more universal than life; everyone dies but not everyone lives. - Alan Sachs
- Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives, that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it, I say! Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows. - Pope Paul VI
- Guard well your spare moments. They are like uncut diamonds. Discard them and their value will never be known. Improve them and they will become the brightest gems in a useful life. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
- You don't have a soul. You are a Soul. You have a body. - C. S. Lewis
- Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. - Helen Keller
- Our truest life is when we are in our dreams awake. - Henry David Thoreau
- It is never too late to be what you might have been. - George Eliot
