To Be or Not To Be

Shakespeare had it wrong.



We don't have the option Hamlet pondered: To be or not to be.

We only have "to be."

You have a unique purpose in life, which I call your life story. It's your privilege to write that story through your words and actions.

You really can't "not to be"  because it's impossible to forfeit your special place in the Universe.

In a very simplistic analogy, consider your life story to be a package that was delivered to your house. You can pick it up and open it and enjoy it.

Or, you can pretend you're not home. But that doesn't give you the option of  "not to be." The package (your life story) has already been delivered.

"To be" is the only way to live. It's a gift.
