(Jesus:) Your life.
That's one. Think about the thousands of others. The lives of people that are presently on this Earth. Lives born, growing and coming to an end.
If you had a chance to talk to the oldest man on Earth, he could tell you that from all the he has seen and experienced, life is short.
If you look closely into that statement, there lies the secret to enjoy life and live it to the utmost.
Life on Earth is uncertain, fragile, for everyone that goes through it.
You can't be sure about your own life or that of others.
When it comes to it, you don't own anything, not even yourself.
The way to gain is by giving; and the way to truly live is to never stop giving.
If you can learn to enjoy every minute, treasure every moment, make the most out of everything you do, and tackle each day with love in your heart that is shared and spread, then you will have lived a life worth living! A full and rich life.
It doesn't take perfection: perfect conditions and surroundings, perfect loves and friends, a perfect family and a perfect past, perfect feelings of happiness and success, or a perfect will to take you through it all.
Nobody has these perfect things, and I didn't intend for you to have them in order to live a great life.
The greatness in life lies elsewhere. The key is in your heart, at every person's reach.
In you heart I have placed needs, dreams and desires, hopes and longings. I have given you the ability to love beyond what is humanly possible. I have placed a desire to find happiness and a craving for success. And these things are really out there. I'm not a cruel God.
To enjoy life, to live it grandly, stretch and give!
If you feel you have nothing to give, you can look a little closer and see that you can give of what you have. I have placed love in your heart and that is the main reason to live, to love.
