What will you do with the next 525,600 minutes?

I might be a bit manic today.  Can I tell you how much I love the song Seasons of Love from the musical RENT?  I LOVE it!  I just happened to hear the other day when I was finishing up my speaking gig with Women with Visions Unlimited (www.wwvu.org).  

As I was perusing youtube (I don't really have that much time on my hands - I love distractions), I found it.  

So many truth or dares to be had in just one song.  It's amazing (kinda scary) to me how one's mind can hold onto so many different thoughts at one time.  Ok...let's get on to the more important stuff.  Please take time to listen to this video (type in Seasons of Love in the youtube window) - REALLY listen to the words.  Let them soak in...

What words stood out to you?  What thoughts ran through your mind?  What truth needs to be told?  What dares need to be dared?

Today's Truth or Dare is a do-it-yourself.  Do one of your own or choose from one that came to my mind:

What will you do with the next 1440 minutes?
How do you measure your worth?
Take time to watch the sunset some time this week.
How often do you laugh?  Do you need to laugh more?
When you wake up tomorrow ask yourself this question : "What do I want to get done before the sun sets today?"
How would I live my life differently - if I measured it in love?
Are there any bridges that need mending?
How will you measure your life?
How will you remember this coming year in the lives of your friends?
How can you celebrate today?
How do you measure time?  How do you WANT to measure time?
Is it time to celebrate?

Which ever truth or dare you choose - Make it relevant.  Be truthful.  Be daring.  

Measuring my life,
Cindy
