What would make your life more meaningful?
Spending more time on your art?

Discovering the intricacies of nature?
Bearing witness to more sunrises and sunsets?
Jumping into oceans and climbing trees?
Forming deeper connections with people you love?
Less small talk, more real talk?
Less gossip, more silent, breathless belly laughs?
More time with your family?
And not just showing up at family obligations but actual quality time?
More giving and service, less consumption?
Leaving this world a little better than you found it?
Joy, freedom, peace, wellbeing, connection.
These things cant just appear in your life if you dont make them a priority.
Or at the very least, find ways to bring your passions into your obligations.
That outlook takes us off the hook.
Its easier to accept a reality we dont like when we can blame it on something else.
Of how we choose to spend our days, our hours, here in this one life.
The greatest shifts in my own life have come from living more intentionally.
From choosing to prioritize exploration, experiences, creativity, play, connection, family, and my health.
And choosing to prioritize themnownot some abstract point in future when Ill have the time and means.
Because nothing is guaranteed beyond the now.
So, what will you choose?
