To live instead of exist

I saw the movie, Yes Man, this weekend. What a great tribute to living instead of existing. Check it out.

I recently gave a one month notice to my current employer. I then booked a trip to Paris/Venice/Rome with my love. I think this counts as living instead of existing. :-)

As simple as this is, it made an impact:

For the last four days, I’ve been traveling. I so wanted to hide out in my hotel room and relax in front of the tv every night after a long day of work. But I didn’t, I got out, visted a friend I hadn’t seen in forever, shopped and explored. I’m so glad that I did. :-)

I’m excited about this new goal. I want to find a way to achieve this every single day.
