Quote of the day: Battles...

"I could not, at any age, be content to take my place by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived. Curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life." -Eleanor Roosevelt

Wow, what a great thought to start my quote of the day with. It seems to be a common struggle we all have. Each of us has something within us the drives us to do more, learn more, achieve more, know more, be more. Unfortunately, we also each have the desire to be comfortable, to stay the way we are, avoid change, to wait for something outside of ourselves to do the moving for us. How many times have you or I been curious about something, had a great idea, a desire to learn a new skill, a desire to improve and old skill, desire to visit someplace new, to try something new, etc... but then something stops us. I think the simple realization that there is this conflict within us is the first and best step to overcoming this battle. It is nearly impossible to win a battle that you do not know you are fighting. So know this: we are in a battle to fill our life with more life. How are we going to fight?
