With today’s economic recession, there are many people trudging through life, living in their roles, living week-to-week, always looking for “someday” and forgetting to live life to the fullest today.

We challenge you to evaluate your life. How would you describe your life today? If a book or movie was written based on your life, would it be an adventure? Comedy? Romance? More likely than not, it’s probably a mix of a few different types.

As you are living life today think of years from now. When you look back, will you feel as though you truly lived life to the fullest, taking every experience in life and fully living it? Or will you think back with some regret, wishing you had done more, and possibly risked more.

Living life doesn’t require risk or action, but instead about the experience it creates, even if the activity is conservative and safe. Live in the moment, not in the future. Start living your life more fully today!

The summer months go by fast, too fast. Although family vacations can be a great way to create memories and have some much-needed family time, there are many simple (and free) ways you can “LIVE” life and enjoy time with your family all summer long. Here are 15 of our favorites:

· Make home-made popsicles

· Paint
· Play in a sprinkler
· Tie-dye t-shirts
· Swing/go to a park

Life is precious, and time with family is important and often scarce. Take a step back and focus on activities that will have everyone in your family interacting in a fun way. Life is too short to overlook the simple things that will most likely create life-long memories for your children.
