There are lots more synonyms I could trot out, but you get the picture.
Most of the time, life is made up of ordinary moments, the everyday moments that don’t get broadcast to the world. I’ve found that life takes on a multitude of colours, sounds, and emotions when I pursue creativity.
Tonight we had a five-hour conversation with friends about living life out loud. A life that speaks volumes, not about our own achievements, but about the legacy our lives leave.
We’ve been on a twenty-five year journey with these friends and our lives have seen many challenges and successes, but through it all we challenge each other to live bigger and better lives.
There’s not many people you can have five-hour conversations with and feel like there’s still much more to say. I bought three books during the conversation that will challenge me to think about leadership, legacy and longevity. (Don’t you just love Amazon and The Book Depository?)
Bringing forth the jewels hidden within is a fine art and I’m blessed to have friends who live amplified lives.
It’s just after midnight so I’m squeaking in my Day 35 Creative Challenge, but isn’t that what life’s about? Squeezing in every experience, bringing out the God colours in the world and living an amplified life.
I’ll talk to you again tomorrow!
