a life well lived

What does a life well lived look like?
What do I look like when i am living? Not existing, going, and maintaining a certain level of functions, but actual living? 

Sometimes life seems so beautiful that it takes my breath away.

I am awake.

I notice the Holy Spirit: 

he is living and breathing over me.

Living well could consist of things like playing, laughter, music, eating good food, filling out bellies with warm goodness and our hearts with delight. When life is at its fullest it seems like every color jumps out at me screaming for attention. All smells bring back old memories, as if the scent itself is resurrecting moments of life in my mind. When living is happening my laugh is loudest and my eyes are tear stained and beautiful.
There are moments when I love life.

These moments bring me deeper into Jesus' heart for me.

Jesus delights in me. 

When I live in delight of his blessings my heart is awakened to deeper truth.

It is delight being fleshed out in me. 

"The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save. 

He will take great delight in you, 

he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing (Zeph 3)"

I went into the woods for a weekend with these people. I started the weekend feeling slightly akward, this is pretty normal when you don't truly know people, which I didn't. I left the weekend feeling loved.
God is good to me.
Counting my blessings.
Learning to live in Delight of the Lord and his gifts to me.
Learning to see the gift and notice the GIVER more and more each day.
A life well lived is a life lived in the presence of the Giver, the King, my Abba!
oh, I love Love.
