Life opens with a "Yes"

Here are some uplifting words my mom left me as a parting gift:

"Each day has a gift to give, small joys and great ones, too...

Beauty to see and songs to hear and wonderful things to do...

Enjoy each to the fullest for they add up to nothing less than a lifetime of lovely moments and a heart full of happiness."

It was great having her here. You know the experience has been good when you can look back, revisit each memory, then face ahead and walk (maybe run) on, with a smile on your face and these words in your heart -- "No regrets!" 

And generally speaking, I truly believe that every day of our lives is an open invitation -- to live fully, to live with no regrets, to live within the "Yes!"
