Consider being
congruent with life
as your
naturalSelf-expression.
Consider being a match for life as your
naturalSelf-expression.
Consider being a match for life is your
naturalSelf-expression.
Consider living anything less than that, is just ripping yourself off.
Consider living anything less than being a match for life, is simply
biding time, going through the motions - in other
words,
it's living like
business as usual.
The essential idea here is being a match for life requires an
activeparticipation
with life rather than a passiveparticipation
with life. Being a match for life is bringing yourself to life, rather
than waiting for life to come to you ie rather than waiting for life to
happen
to you. To borrow from President John Fitzgerald Kennedy: ask not when
life will
happen
to you; ask with what you'll match life.
That said, is it possible to measure whether or not an individual lives
matching life? Indeed it is. A veritable plethora of
measurements can be put in place to gauge this - such as measuring
promises made and promises kept, to name but two. Notice in measuring
living as a match for life, any such measurements have to start
somewhere. Like measuring the date starts with GMT ie
Greenwich Mean Time, where does measuring living
as a match for life, start?
The place from where your life is measured as a match for life, starts
with what you say ie it starts from where you
stand.
Without measurements, I can only offer my
opinion,
interpretation,
or assessment of whether or not you live your life as a match for life.
As accurate as my
opinion,
interpretation,
and assessment may be, they're not measurements.
Similarly, the place from where my life is measured as a match for
life, starts with what I say ie it starts from where I
stand.
Without measurements, you can only offer your
opinion,

It's only from what I say ie from where I
stand
that you can tell whether or not I live my life as a match for life,
and how you can measure the degree to which I'm succeeding at it, or
not. It's only from what I say ie from where I stand that you can tell
whether living my life as a match for life, is my
commitment.
Without
my word in the matter,
living my life as a match for life isn't possible - neither as my
commitment
nor as something you can measure.
