I believe that their is a duality to the purpose of our life, and it is LOVE and CREATION. To LOVE the life we have - authentically and unconditionally, while we CREATE the best life we can imagine - actively and persistently. This is what L.I.F.E. (Living Inspired & Fulfilled Everyday) is about!

I like people who are still actively creating in their life, who aren't set, I don't feel like I'm set. And I don't have any baggage, for better or worse. I don't have any plants or pets or kids. I can lock the door and go. I need to be with somebody for whom that's okay.

Our spiritual life is a life in which we wait, actively present to the moment, expecting that new things will happen to us, new things that are far beyond our own imagination or prediction. This, indeed, is a very radical stance toward life in a world preoccupied with control.

It is not necessary for a man to be actively bad in order to make a failure in life simple inaction will accomplish it. Nature has everywhere written her protest against idleness everything which ceases to struggle toward an ideal, the constant effort to get higher and further, which develops manhood and character.

I now look at the things I could have done better and instead of beating myself up about it, since I can't turn back time, I try to remember to ask myself, what was this experience sent to me to teach me? I think specifically about what I will do better next time, then I actively look for moments to practice for the next time.
Jane Park

It's such a cold night and it's the only time I've actively been grateful for menopause. I've been entirely comfortable.
Emma Thompson

I do want to have that feeling that people are actively involved in something, rather than just consuming something. I suppose that's what it comes down to, because it's such a dominant capitalist society, everything becomes a consumer product. And I don't think that's really appropriate to the creative arts, really.
