e3 : “entertainment, epistemology, empowerment.”

Death bites.
{But dying while healthy, rich and free enough to drink life to the last drop is getting great press, thanks to a new movie.}

Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman star in The Bucket List, a buddy flick in which they leap from planes, drive race cars, eat caviar, motorcycle on the Great Wall of China, and trot by other wonders of the world before they “kick the bucket.”

The movie’s premise resonates~
Millions of people have a dream “do” list: all they would do if they could in life.

These lists tend to feature all the highlights on the aspirational horizon —

~acts of fancy, courage and delight, full of punch and flavor, adrenalin and imagination.

“It’s not enough to react to life on a day-by-day basis. People need a road map. Life lists are one of the best ways to plumb the depths of the human psyche,” says Caroline Adams Miller, a Bethesda, Md.-based author, motivational speaker and life coach who encourages clients to create a 100-item roster.

One of the best ways to achieve your own goals is to create public accountability and support by sharing them with a wide audience.
To that end, we encourage you to join Your100Things by Caroline Miller and begin creating your life list and encouraging others through Goal Kudos and Cheers!

Please consider the different ways that you can set and track your progress towards goals that are important to you, and that might add some zest and learning to your life.
Maybe you’ve never allowed yourself to think or dream this way, and you can open the door to an entirely new set of adventures. Or perhaps you’ll find that you’d like to shift your profession by going through this, and you can find some new friends online who will cheer you on.

I will meet you HERE: Your 100 item BUCKET LIST

Begin YOUR Bucket List TODAY.
(not tonight, not tommorrow… but RIGHT NOW) =)

Diagnosed with autism at an early age~
david militello said not a single word for the first 3 years of his life.

Until, one day, david’s parents~
discovered from the school’s bus driver…
that their beloved son had a self-expression
that had until recently
went undisplayed.

watch:

A glorious inspiration; in a tiny package…

“When a man stares into the abyss ~

and sees nothing but darkness,

this is the time…

this is the time that he finds his character.

And it is his character,
that keeps him

from falling

into
the abyss.”

“In the name of Jesus~
no weapon formed against me shall prosper~
and every toungue that rises against me in judgement You shall condemn…”

“Righteousness is of Me“; sayeth the Lord.

Lord gimme a sign!

I really need to talk to you Lord;
’cause since the last time we talked?
The walk has been hard!

And I know You havent left me~
but I feel i’m all alone.

i’m a big boy now~
but im still not grown.

And im still going through it:
“Pain and the Hurt”

Soakin’ up trouble~
like rain in the dirt.

And I know:
I can stop the rain~
with just the mention of my Saviour’s name:
In the name of Jesus!

Devil? I rebuke you!
For what I go through~
and trying to make me
do
what I used to…

But all that stops right here!

As long as the Lord in my life
I will have no fear~
I will know no pain-
from the light to the dark…

I willl show no shame~
say it right from the heart.
‘Cause it’s right from the start
You held me down;
and there’s nothing they can tell me now~

Lord gimme a sign:

Lord gimme a sign~

Let me know what’s on Your mind;
Let me no what i’m gonna find.
~it’s all the time…

Show me how to teach the mind-
show me how to reach the blind.

Lord gimme a sign!
Show me what I gotta to do~
to bring me closer to You!
’cause i’m going to go through~
with watever You want me to… just let me know what to do.

Just gimme a sign!

Waiting on the Lord,
i’m huntin’ with the Word
that
cuts like a sword…

The strongest Word
is stronger than the strongest man~
He carrys the whole world
in His stronger hand;

You never let us down~
I know You’re here with us now…

I wanna feel!!!!!!!
show me how!
please~

Let me take Your hand-
Guide me.

I walk slow.

Stay right beside me,

the devils trying to find me~

Hide me!

hold up~
I take that back: protect me
and give me the stregnth to fight back!

Life or death ~live or die
I will never live a lie.

i’m gonna make it,
wrong or right~
Make it through
this darkest night!

When the morning comes you’ll see.

DECISIONS shape DESTINY

The 2 primary patterns~
The invisible Forces that shape us:
a) our [physcial/emotional] state: SHORT TERM
b) our paradym or our model of the world: LONG TERM
Our view of the World; [Our World View] is the shaper of our Meaning, Emotion and Actions

M A S T E R
L E S S O N S

These are the 3 DECISIONS we are making every moment of our Lives:

1. What am i going to FOCUS on?
f o c u s = feeling

2. What does it MEAN?
is this an “ending” or a “new begginning” ?
am i being “punished” or “rewarded” ?

3. What am i going to DO?
are you going to “give up”?
or are you going to “move forward” ?

note: It will take just 69 seconds for you to read this, …. and inspire your thinking.*

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room.

One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs.

His bed was next to the room’s only window.

The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back.

The men talked for hours on end~

They spoke of their wives~
and families,
…. their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service,
their childhood adventures, and where they had been on vacation.

Every afternoon,
when the man in the bed by the window could sit up,
he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window.

The man in the other bed began to live for those one hour periods
where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake.

Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats.
Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every imaginable color~
and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance.

As the man by the window described all this in exquisite details,
the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes
and imagine this picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon, the man by the window described a parade passing by.

Although the other man could not hear the band -
he could see it in his mind’s eye vividly as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days, weeks and even months passed.

One morning~
the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window,
…who had died peacefully in his sleep.

She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window.
The nurse was happy to make the switch,
and
after making sure he was comfortable,
she left him alone.

…slowly,
….. painfully,
he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the colorful, rich, real world outside.

He strained to slowly turn to look out the window besides the bed.

And….

It faced a blank wall!?

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window.

The nurse responded that the man was blind,
and could not even see the wall.

She said: ‘Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you.’

Epilogue:

There is tremendous happiness in making others happy, despite our own situations.

Shared grief is half the sorrow, but happiness when shared, is doubled.

If you want to feel rich?
… just count all the things you have that money can’t buy.

“Yesterday is: History.”
“Tommorrow: Mystery.”

“Today is the Gift!”
… that is why it is called: “Present.”
