In a cd by John Maxwell, he talked about the fact that when you die people will sum you up in one sentence, so select it now and live it purposefully. I heard a great quote by a Bollywood actor Kamalahasan, who said that death is to life as a period is to a sentence. Combining these two ideas, I’d like to set this idea up for you to think about. Death is inevitable, as is the punctuation at the end of a sentence. What kind of life sentence do you desire: is it long, but run-on; mediocre and useless; short and sweet; succinct and intelligent; wise and humorous; and or full of passion and vitality? It is up to you, as it is your life. Pick it now, then live it so that your thoughts, words and actions all reflect your truth (as Colette Carlson calls it), all reflect your life sentence.
