Life is to be enjoyed. Simple.
As we head into uncharted waters with the United States and the largest financial crisis in history and as we head into this exact unknown future we must remember one thing. Life is to be enjoyed.
With a Mormon back ground and having served a two year mission for the church I recall one phrase from the Book of Mormon that always brought me peace. "Adam fell that men might be, and men are that they might have joy." I know no other reason for existence then simply for the feeling of joy.
With the rush of life and the world full of derivatives, we must remember this simple principle and the "pursuit of happiness". The pursuit of happiness is coined phrase from the United States Declaration of Independence that when paraphrased from English Philosopher, John Locke, it was meant in a fact of being happy. The pursuit is to constantly be looking for happiness in all things.
As my wife and I prepare for unprecedented times, we must constantly remind ourselves of the great things in our abundant life. Constantly cultivating a life full of gratitude. In all the history of time, we are alive now, in this era, and what an exciting time to be in the history of existence!
The B Side To The Truth is life is real and life is to be enjoyed. While we enjoy it we must prepare. Yet let's not get so caught up in preparations that we cannot enjoy the "pursuit of happiness!"
