What is the key to a wonderful life? Some think it is having a powerful position or a lot of wealth. I contend that one of the keys to a wonderful life is embracing change.
Change can be paralyzing. Many dread change and face it with fear and trepidation. I chose to embrace it my entire life. That attitude led me to say “yes” to whatever adventure God put before me, from marrying a white girl to changing jobs every couple of years!
I lived a full life before ALS hit. I was not “waiting for someday” to make things happen. I lived in the moment and lived it to the fullest. That is a key to a wonderful life! A life with minimal regrets, no missed opportunities and no “wishing I would have” because I DID! If you are a person who feels you don’t have a wonderful life today, I encourage you to start embracing change. Feel the exhilaration in trying something new.

For my birthday, my girls put together a skit telling my life’s story. You can get a feel for all the changes my wife and I went through.
If you are a person who doesn’t take chances and who fears change, I hope this skit will give you the courage to just say “yes” to one adventure that is put before you. Seeing my life’s adventures made me laugh and I hope they will make you laugh too.
