Lesson 290: If We Were Not Born...

“If we were not born, if we didn’t die, there would be no “container” for this particular human lifetime. The finite nature of our lives is what makes them extraordinary.”
— Sara Wiseman

Today we are to think about what else we want to experience in this life with the time we have left.

It’s a bit tough to think about how much time we have left when we don’t have the answer as to when we go. Maybe that’s the point of this lesson… because we don’t know the time we have left on this earth, why aren’t we trying to experience as much as we can?

I know I live for experience in my life. I changed my mindset nearly 2 years ago to really start doing things that brought joy into my life. By living this way, I’ve made some interesting progress and realising the only limit in life is myself.

The only thing I really want to do in life is travel to more places in the world to experience the culture. I want to see how other people live, make a better effort in finding a place to volunteer at and enjoy my time learning. I think that’s the only thing I want to truly experience – seeing other cultures and helping others. I also think that I’ll live until I’m quite old so that’s why I think I have so much time left. I don’t necessarily think I have limited time. I think I have plenty of time. Plus, it takes money to travel and I need time to save.

I think what I’ve embracing is my creative side – more so lately than ever before. It was something that was inside of me that I didn’t know I really had. It’s been great being able to express myself. Painting is becoming part of my experience also. I enjoy it very much.

Apart from these things, I can’t really say there is much more I want to experience. I mean, this may change in 5 years, but for now, I’m quite happy where I am in life.

How about you?
