Celebrate Life

What Does It Mean to Celebrate Life?

Celebrating life is loving and being loved, moving in love, being motivated by love and sharing love in little ways with others (through sensitivity, discretion, courtesy, reciprocation, encouragement, wise counsel, listening empathetically, thoughtfulness and kindness).

Celebrating life is having friendships with people that you can be yourself (transparent) around, and where between yourself and others, there exists a mutual commitment to truth, love, honor, integrity and to each other's well being.

Ground Rules

Where Do the Rules Come From?

There are rules for every situation, so what is life's guiding principle?

Consider this: Every game, every job, every organization, every relationship, every mechanical device, every business, every science (astronomy, physics, biology, chemistry, etc.), in fact, just about everything in life has rules for success or failure. Two particular types of rules emerge from this concept:

The Quest

The Quest for Fulfillment, Joy and Eternity

By Dr. Monte Wilson, III

"No one can construct for you the bridge upon which precisely you must cross the stream of life, no one but you yourself alone. There are, to be sure, countless paths and bridges and demigods which would bear you through this stream; but only at the cost of yourself: you would put yourself in pawn and lose yourself. There exists in the world a single path along which no one can go except you: whither does it lead? Do not ask; go along it. Who was it who said: a man never rises higher than when he does not know whither his path can still lead him?"

- Oliver Cromwell

Celebrate Your Gifts

What is My Gift?

The truth is that your life is a gift from God. The Bible categorically states you are "wonderfully made"--in other words, awesome! In fact, you are "a gift from God" to others. This is true even though you may not feel that way today.

Day to day, you may feel the exact opposite--unloved, unattractive, unpopular, worthless, hopeless or just plain lost. You may be wondering who am I? Why am I here? What purpose can my life possibly serve? What is my Ultimate Purpose? Do I have anything to contribute? Will I ever be happy? What is life all about anyway?
