Live the life you love

We put so much emphasis on "doing' in our culture, and very little on being. We just have such an obsession with what people do and have, and not as much in who people ARE, or how they're being in the world. What's the second question people ask you after they know your name? I realize it's a "safe" conversation starter. How about "What's the last thing that scared the sh&t out of you?", or, "Have you ever jumped out of a plane, and would you, if the opportunity presented itself?". Answers to any of those questions would tell you so much more about the person you're speaking with than a rote response to questions about what they do.

The truth is you spend more of your life working then you do much of anything else, and yes you should love what you do. But it's not what you do, it's who you are, and how you're being.
Spend your time doing the things you love- the things that lift you higher. My uncle said it best "Figure out what you love to do, then find a way to make money doing it"
