Wow! I've never seen this before. It's totally awesome and I'll be watching it again. It's also reminding me to keep doing the things I'm dreaming of, what's still on my bucket list. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Loved this! And so timely...

I just found out that a dear friend of mine died last night in Kansas City. Just yesterday, she liked & made a comment on pictures of Jordi I had posted on FB. I talked to her last month & she said she had been diagnosed with the same lung disease that had taken her mother & younger sister, but we had no idea it would take her so quickly.

Life is for living! I've been hesitating about the expense of my trip to France & of spending quite a bit to host all the kids out here while my youngest daughter is in town.

This commercial & the sudden death of my friend gives me courage to spend the money. Go to France, have fun with the kids, splurge a little while I'm in KS next week & stop worrying about the cost (within reason of course - ha!)

Thanks for sharing it. I will watch it frequently to remind myself - life is for living!

Hrm. I'm wondering if somehow the link to the commercial didn't work for me.

I tried watching it, it started with an asian man (maybe Japanese) really upset about something that is unspecified (the beginning of the commercial, at least, is not in English).

After about one or two minutes of this, I couldn't figure out what was supposed to be going on, so I just turned it off. Seemed like a downer, whatever it was.

Was I watching the same thing as everyone else?

Thanks.

Anne

Yes Anne, it's the correct commercial. There are sub titles in English.

When I saw it the first time a couple of years ago, I sort of thought that some of us were already getting out there with that sort of attitude. We just didn't wait quite as long to get started. And then many of us met Lyn and recognized that she had figured it out even earlier than we had and had been modeling the attitude for a lot longer than any of us!

That is sooo true Tina. I’ve had the pleasure of traveling with and spending time camping with Lyn and every time I’ve been in awe of what she’s done in her life.
