I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. – Agatha Christie
I love this Agatha Christie quote. Not only did the lady write the greatest mysteries the world has ever known (as her #1 fan, I may be a bit biased), she also had a great handle on life. Life is beautiful, even on the worst of days. Some people say they feel more alive than ever when they’re in the middle of a battle, while others claim the period just after a battle is the sweetest.
Personally? I feel more alive when things are calm and normal. When chaos ensues, I’m the proverbial chicken with its head cut off – running in circles, clucking, and looking a perfect fool. This girl wasn’t built for chaos. I’ll give chaos this, however, it does make lazy, calm, beautiful days like today feel thisclose to Heaven.
Great quote – that’s my kind of thinking. Thanks for sharing 😉
I feel more in existence when things are relaxed and regular. When disorder arises, I’m the familiar hen with its head cut off – managing in groups, clucking, and looking the best deceive. This lady was not designed for disorder.
Very luvly article Joi, and I love the Agatha Christie quote.

I live life to the fullest every day (sometimes I have to remind myself to do it though!). I tell myself that life is not a dress rehearsal and you only have one life so it’s worth living.
Keep positive and enjoy your life, don’t let distractions get in the way. Focus on what you want out of life and don’t let obstacles get in the way
