Living Is So Big... Keep On Moving! BY: Chris Agudo

Hey, you... Keep on moving!  What does that mean?  Well it means a lot of things.  But what I mean by that is in the sense that if we keep stagnant then we keep still.  We keep "lazy." We keep "stale." Etc. Don't get me wrong, sometimes it is okay to chill out and relax and be "lazy" because there is no need to over-heat.  Yes, when we are tired and our feet are aching, we rest and relax to regain our strength, but, the problem comes into play when we regain our strength and are feeling good and continue to be lazy.


So... keep on moving, be active, and feel good about it.  To keep on moving, to be active, to have that flow going is to have progression and onward movement.  That is the moral of.... (Read more)

 

Purposeful now!!!

"Throughout my existence, I have and still continue to make realizations that one's self purpose is demonstrated in the now. With that being said, create a purposeful now for the rest of your life.."
-Jesus Agudo

When I say "I love you"

"When I say "I love you," it is with my best energy that I have to offer. Even though love is a powerful word, my energy is beyond priceless." -Jesus Agudo

LIVING IS SO BIG... Doors open and Close

I have struggled big and small for the past year, I was released out of the military in 2011 and I thought all would be well returning to civillian life but not. I was faced with a bad economy and no good paying jobs. I thought for sure I was going to fail at life.

I was down and out working at cinnabon in the Asheville mall when a nice couple breathed life into me with just 4 words "LIVING IS SO BIG" who would have thought that these 4 little words would change the way I see my life forever.

The wristband is still on my wrist and it never comes off and when I feel depressed I just look down and read those 4 little words and it makes me smile and changes my view instantly.

LETTER... A big smile

Dear Iliana, Christopher and Jesus,

I am writing this letter to let you know how thankful I am that you guys came to talk to me and my classmates. When I entered my class, I was serious and kind of sad. But, when you guys started talking I was thinking this is so interesting. When I got out of class I came out with a BIG smile and alot of wristbands.

I love these wristbands! I still need three more to make the colection because Living Is So Big!!! ...
