Comments on: My Hope For You http://www.jungleoflife.com/my-hope-for-you/ A journey toward your true peak Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:06:27 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Lance Ekum http://www.jungleoflife.com/my-hope-for-you/#comment-21915 Lance Ekum Tue, 10 Jan 2012 02:36:02 +0000 http://www.jungleoflife.com/?p=5054#comment-21915 Hi Shannon, First off...it's so, so great seeing you here today!! (I'm smiling...because of YOU...) Those moments that get us thinking...they can be pretty powerful. And I'm reminded, as I sit here tonight, that these moments are all around us - and we don't even fully grasp that (I sure don't), in the moment. Who knows what could have happened if I left a minute earlier to take my son to school today? Or if went outside to check the mail an hour later? Or if I had stopped at that yellow light instead of rushing through it? And all the other myriad of choices that brought me through my day... ...life is precious... Thanks again, Shannon, for your presence here, and in my life... Hi Shannon,
First off…it’s so, so great seeing you here today!! (I’m smiling…because of YOU…)

Those moments that get us thinking…they can be pretty powerful. And I’m reminded, as I sit here tonight, that these moments are all around us — and we don’t even fully grasp that (I sure don’t), in the moment. Who knows what could have happened if I left a minute earlier to take my son to school today? Or if went outside to check the mail an hour later? Or if I had stopped at that yellow light instead of rushing through it? And all the other myriad of choices that brought me through my day…

…life is precious…

Thanks again, Shannon, for your presence here, and in my life…

So much to remind us all of. I actually had an incident recently that really got me thinking about what could have been and why it was not. Love your words of inspiration so very much! So beautiful Lance. So much to remind us all of. I actually had an incident recently that really got me thinking about what could have been and why it was not.

Life is indeed precious, and that's such a big take away for me, from this. For me, this has been many, many years ago - and something that was so difficult to share. In sharing, though, there was a release for me - as if there was a bondage holding onto me until I wrote this. Know that I'm thinking of you... Lance Hi Kathryn,
I’m so, so sorry for stirring within your soul these memories from your more recent car accident. Life is indeed precious, and that’s such a big take away for me, from this. For me, this has been many, many years ago — and something that was so difficult to share. In sharing, though, there was a release for me — as if there was a bondage holding onto me until I wrote this.

Know that I’m thinking of you…

Lance

This was really difficult for me, because it felt like I was showing a side of me that others hadn't seen before. And yet, the thing is - I was supported in ways I could never have imagined, just by opening up and letting this out. Again, thank you for your sweet words today - they hold much meaning for me.

This was really difficult for me, because it felt like I was showing a side of me that others hadn’t seen before. And yet, the thing is — I was supported in ways I could never have imagined, just by opening up and letting this out.

Again, thank you for your sweet words today — they hold much meaning for me.

Yes, so good to let really soak into our soul — this idea that a few seconds can change so much. And that’s a great reason to truly “be” ourselves…deeply…lovingly…

Thanks so much for your thoughts.

It's so hard to sometimes grasp how quickly it can change, be taken away, altered forever. I can go through my days - and all too quickly let this moment in time fade into the background. Life is precious. And it is what we make it to be. I really love the word GRATITUDE you've used here. It reminds me how thankful we should be for this life we're living. Katie, and know that I am deeply grateful for you....and for your being here...here in this space, and even more than that - here on this earth. Your words today, especially, land upon my heart...and touch deeply to my being.... Much peace, Lance Katie,
Life. It’s so hard to sometimes grasp how quickly it can change, be taken away, altered forever. I can go through my days — and all too quickly let this moment in time fade into the background.

Life is precious. And it is what we make it to be. I really love the word GRATITUDE you’ve used here. It reminds me how thankful we should be for this life we’re living.

Katie, and know that I am deeply grateful for you.…and for your being here…here in this space, and even more than that — here on this earth. Your words today, especially, land upon my heart…and touch deeply to my being.…

Much peace,
Lance
