Happy Thankful Thursday!! I was searching for today's post when I came across this inspiring video by Sam Berns. Sam was diagnosed with Progeria, a rare and fatal genetic condition when he was just 22 months old. This condition is often times referred to as the "Benjamin Button" disease. After viewing his TED talk I knew I wanted to share this clip.
I threw his name in the Google search engine and discovered that he had died in Jan 2014 at the age of 17. Wow...what a legacy this young man leaves behind. In this TED video he encourages his viewers to focus their energy towards towards 4 key elements.
Here is Sam's Philosophy for a Happy Life:
Aware.
Awake.
Content.
Passionate.
Joyful.
Kind.
Visible.
Transformed.
Compassionate.
His list is inspiring me to create my own list for a Happy Life. Can you think of the highlights of your list? As you create this list, tap into the feeling you'd like to create and then move from there. Allow your passion for living to inspire your list for a Happy Life.
May You Sweetly Seek:)
In Gratitude,
Sarah
