R. Buckminster Fuller offered the following challenge in the form of a question…”If success or failure of this planet and of human beings depended on how I am and what I do, HOW WOULD I BE? WHAT WOULD I DO?”

Just considering that question makes me pause and offer the same invitation.  How would you be?  What would you do?

Would you be sitting in front of the TV, eating a bag of chips?  Would you continue to not forgive for the sake of not forgiving?  Would you still be blaming others for not providing you what you think you need?  Would you continue to believe that your efforts or your life really doesn’t matter?  If your answer is “of course not” – are you sure?  Why must this question be posed to us- to wake us up to the realization that we are numbing ourselves to life – whether thru food, alcohol, sex or drugs.   As a society, we are tremendously overweight, we are tremendously over medicated, we are tremendously prone to blame others.

And, I ask myself:  What would I do?  I would do everything within my power to wake everyone up to the growing epidemic of obesity.  We, as a society, are eating ourselves to death.  Our lives are being shortened, the years we have are not lived fully and saddest of all, our children and their children will suffer if WE don’t stop that cycle.

I have a Chrysalis Challenge – what one thing can you do today to create a healthier, more fulfilling life?  Now, go do that one thing.
