Close Kept Secrets to Weight Loss Lesson #16

Today is the most wonderful day! We have gifts right in front
of us and we are ready to grab those gifts and say WAHOO! Look
around you at your extraordinary treasures.

For my 50th birthday, my nieces gave me a CD by Tim McGraw
entitled Live Like You Were Dying. They paid me a wonderful
compliment and said, “Aunt Tami, you’re the one we think of who
is living like you were dying.” What a powerful message to me as
I blast that song every morning to rev up my energy. Of course,
picturing Tim in those tight jeans helps!

Remember I used to live in such deep doo doo with fear and
worry. Through daily practice my connection to God becomes
clearer–it’s corrosion free. It takes practice to transcend
fear and putting those daily activities in place to help bring
in the positives. Want to have some fun with your inner child?
Sticking your tongue out at fear does help. So let’s practice.
Stick out your tongue and face your fears and shout, “You’re not
the boss of me.” It’s kind of hard to have your tongue hanging
out while talking but it sure feels good, doesn’t it?

I am reprinting some lines from the song so you can breathe in
the message.

Live Like You Were Dying

He said, “I was in my early forties, with a lot of life before
me, When a moment came that stopped me on a dime. And I spent
most of the next days looking at the x-rays And talking “bout
the options, talking “bout sweet time.”

And I asked him when it sank in That this might really be the
end. “How’s it hit you when you get that kind of news? Man
what’d you do?” He said,

“I went sky diving; I went rocky mountain climbing; I went two
point seven seconds on a bull named Fumanchu. And I loved
deeper, and I spoke sweeter. And I gave forgiveness I’d been
denying.” And he said, “Someday I hope you get the chance To
live like you were dying.”

He said, “I was finally the husband that most the time I wasn’t.
And I became a friend a friend would like to have. And all ‘a
sudden going fishin’ wasn’t such an imposition And I went three
times that year I lost my dad. And I finally read the good book
and I took a good long look

Powerful message, right? So what are you going to do? Tell a
friend you love him or her. Call a family member whom you
haven’t forgiven and forgive. Do something nice for your
neighbor. Ready to ride the bull? Just for today, “Live Like You
Were Dying!”
