While checking something online, an unexpected quote popped out, by contemporary American poet Mary Oliver:
"What do you do with your one wild precious life?"
It made me stop and think. Yes, what do we do? We have one life to live right now, so it is our duty to make the best out of it, without neglecting any chance or opportunity. Is it also a "wild" life? According to the dictionary, one of the definitions of wild is : "Living in a state of nature". What nature? Certainly "our own". Do we live according to what our true self suggests, if we only take the time to listen? Is our life "precious"? Definition = of great value. How much do we value our life? What do we do to preserve it in a sound, healthy way (physically, emotionally and spiritually)?
