  • What does the phrase "living your best life" mean to you?

I've seen these words used a lot lately and I'm curious as to how they specifically resonate with you.

To me, living my best life means confronting everything I'm afraid of despite the fear and refusing to let fear control me. It means being bold and proactive in pursuing my passions and my life's calling. Living my best life, to me, means trusting God's perfect plan for my incredibly unique life and not trying to limit him in any way, being open, obedient (to him) and receptive.

  • This is your Monday morning reminder that you are amazing and you can handle anything ☀
..
I woke up this morning feeling ill after a weekend of feeling elated. Just a simple reminder from life that no situation or feeling is ever permanent, both the good and the bad.
..
Have a great week y'all. Happy Monday ❤

HOW TO BUNGEE JUMP IF YOU'RE A SCAREDY CAT (LIKE ME):
1. Choose a partner to jump with. I jumped with @chocolaty_prints - important to note: you must be of similar weight otherwise @adrift.u won't let you jump together.
2. Pretend you're not going to ACTUALLY do it and just sign the registration form telling yourself you can always opt out if you choose to.
3. As you climb the tower (where you are going to bungee jump) DO NOT LOOK AT ANYTHING OTHER THAN YOUR FEET - only look at the step infront of you. Do not get tempted to see how far up you are (you can look at that later).
4. After you get strapped, hold onto your partner and close your eyes (this is the only way I could do it) - your sense of sight is not necessary at this point - you can feel and you can hear.
5. DO NOT OPEN YOUR EYES UNTIL YOU HAVE JUMPED - JUMP WITH YOUR EYES CLOSED.
6. Enjoy the thrill. Scream if you must - I personally could not make a sound, my whole body was trembling, it was unbelievable ❤

  • After an adrenaline filled day that started off with white water rafting and followed with a bungee jump (I surprised myself with this one, I didn't think I would do it - see my stories and live video)....after all that, there was nothing better than returning to my home for the weekend and soaking in a tub of bubbles, overlooking the very rapids that challenged us.
..
I could do this forever. I could live here. I could get used to this, right here in the intersection of thrill and contentment.
