Reflection:
Last weekend, our whole family gathered at our oldest child’s home for a grandparents’ day at the granddaughters’ school — a rare and wonderful treat.
Getting everyone together isn’t easy. Our oldest and youngest live eight to twelve hours away. I often tell parents of young children: “If you raise your kids to be independent and encourage them to chase their dreams, don’t be surprised when they do.” 😊
It was a fantastic weekend, complete with what our family calls “highly intellectual” adult conversations. At one point, I told the younger adults in the room that the keys to staying healthy are simple: stay active mentally and physically, do resistance training, and eat plenty of protein. They laughed, as I have a habit of dropping unsolicited wisdom into unrelated conversations.
On the drive home, I kept turning that thought over: staying active really is the key to living well. And as we head into May… when spring energy has a way of waking everything back up, it feels like the perfect theme.
So here we go.
A life of purpose is built in motion. But motion without direction is just busyness. It starts with knowing your purpose.
Soul Search:
- What is my purpose?
- Where am I active but not aligned with it?
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” — Proverbs 16:3 (NIV)
