Think about it - there is an art to everything and living well is no exception. Of any art, this would be the one to master since it encompasses all the others. The art of living well is to make your life an expression of who you are, what you believe, and your hopes, dreams and desires.
Of course, to create your life as a work of art is an ongoing, evolving, and creative endeavor. And so it should be.The difference between living well and just living would be analogous to preparing a meal.When you're hungry you can just throw something together from whatever is handy without considering the nutritional value, taste, or visual appeal of the dish. You can shove something down that fills your tummy and satisfies your immediate appetite.Or, you can prepare a pleasing, nutritious, tasty meal that not only satisfies your visual and practical needs, but also makes it a joy to experience. Of course, the second meal requires more thought, planning, imagination and work, in general, but the rewards are exceedingly greater on every level.So it is with life. You could live it indiscriminately not paying attention to anything in particular, or you can make it a delicious, nutritious treat.
