Why is living so big? These are the reasons.

We can seem to be susceptible, at times, to being lazier than a koala that is eating bamboo. Don't get me wrong, Koala's and bamboo are awesome and being lazy just happens sometimes. After all, it is best to listen to yourself and your insights. If you're very tired, rest. Don't force yourself to stay awake. If you're very full of food, eat nothing more, do not force yourself to eat more. If you're feeling lazy and just want to kick back and do nothing, kick back and do nothing, don't force yourself to do something if you don't have the urge to do so.

It comes down to us truly listening to ourselves and our insights, yet then a question could be posed, "is there a line when it comes down to this? Where do we draw the line?" Why pose that question? Because what if you start becoming a lazy person always due to you just accepting the idea of doing nothing and kicking back because you "feel" the need to do that. I named this article "Always question" because I am going to discuss just exactly where we can draw that line, signifying to us when it does become too much. I back myself up with the idea of truly listening to myself and my insights, so if I am feeling lazy and want to kick back, do nothing and watch a movie, I do it. I release the little lazy person in me to be as lazy as possible, and enjoy it, because I deserve that moment of relaxation. But before I get right into lazy mode, I question myself and really make sure I truly FEEL lazy in that moment, that I really just want to kick back and do nothing. What do I mean? Here is an example with a thought of eating something: ...

You should truly only care what you think about yourself, not what others think about yourself.

Let us keep a positive mindset and continue our days like that. It sure does feel good.

May we learn from our youth just how to go about life. Happy.

Always be the best that you can be.

Always be the best that you can be.

Take the time to be there for yourself, to know who you truly are.

We are all super-heroes that own a cape.

Let us take advice from this fancy dog. He sure knows what he is saying.

Maybe you’ve heard the story of Jesus Agudo and his son, Christopher. Christopher came to a point in his life where he had become very depressed, and decided to call it quits as he actually attempted to end his very life. Just 17 at the time, the first attempt to end his life failed, as he states, because the knot of his self-made noose unraveled, but yet he still planned on a second attempt. When that day came on April 10, 2010 that Jesus the father and his wife, Iliana received the text saying that their son was going to end it all, it broke Jesus as a father. “I never felt so much pain in my life,” Jesus recalls.

Four days later, a doctor pointed her index finger at Jesus and stated, “You need to surround your son with reasons to live for.” That's all that he heard from her at that moment, Jesus said. “‘Living Is So Big' was born right there and then in my mind.” It was an epiphany inspired by love and desperation to help his son. Jesus registered and then created a living is so big website (www.livingissobig.com) asking family, friends and strangers to post their priceless reasons why they choose to live their life.

At that point in his life, the 4-word phrase (Living Is So Big) helped turned Chris' mindset around from a dark moment to a bright moment in his life. That led Jesus and Chris to embark on a father and son campaign to spread the power of life appreciation.

Now, at this point in their lives, Jesus and Chris continue to speak at high schools, universities and businesses across the United States.

What’s next? Jesus and Christopher have been challenged by John Armstrong to grow their beards to honor the bearded ones across the globe. John is the president of the organization called “Beard Team Kansas” of which has raised funds in the past for Living Is So Big, to have them reach the schools and speak to the kids around the nation. ...

Dear Agudo Family,

I really appreciate that you had the time to come to PHS!! You guys inspired me and my dad, along with my family.

My dad's cousin just passed away. He was really depressed. My dad wanted to leave us so he can go to Mexico where his cousin was!

But, "Living Is So Big" came along and gave me advice and I did the same thing for my dad. Thank you for everything!! ...

How about we more actively appreciate life and all it entails? That sounds good.

What gives me the right to state what I am about to state? Well, simple. I'm human and am entitled to my own opinions, but more importantly I myself have attempted suicide. I attempted to end my own life at the age of 17... I am now 21. So I have a knowledge and wisdom in my mind and heart about this touchy subject.

As terrible a thing that occurred with Robin Williams, we need to acknowledge and then move onward. Let us remember the good memories and not dwell on negative aspects of anything. Like I said, acknowledge and take in, yes, but then move onward and remember the good memories. Along with such news of Robin Williams, this phenomena is occurring everywhere, all the time, and we as The People need to feel just motivated enough to, like I said, acknowledge, take in, remember the good memories and then move onward.

Remember the good memories and not dwell on the negative aspects. It's a reality, it-is-what-it-is, if it has been covered that he had taken his own life, then......ok. Sure, it is sad, sure it sucks, sure it needed NOT to happen, truly, because he was a great person that made people laugh and still is through his movies, but Robin had his own life and his own thoughts, and what an individual decides to focus on through their day to day life is their choice. Life is too precious to be taken for granted. Sure, everyone is entitled to their very own set of beliefs, opinions, and actions, because we all have the choice to do whatever we please.

The real question is: how long do we as The People focus on the problem only and not the solution to the problem?

Let me take this moment to explain to you the kind of mindset that I have now as a human being. -A Living Is So Big mindset- Let me further take this moment to explain to you what truly got me out of my depressive, suicidal slump.

"Living Is So Big" is an organization that promotes Life Appreciation. It is "Human Race Based" because, if you have a heart-beat, you have a purpose. The ones behind such a message actively spread this around the globe, via their website "www.livingissobig.com" and visiting various locations around the United States. Schools, Universities, Businesses, etc. Anywhere that people are willing to listen to their take on appreciating life. They also offer life coaching, amongst other programs. Remember if you have a heart-beat, you have a purpose.

I had to get to that because that is what a once suicidal, depressive person (myself) did not believe. Yet, through being introduced to that organization, it literally planted a seed in my mind into becoming a more actively appreciative person with myself, with life, with everything in general that is truly worth appreciating. I am just shining some light. I am not bypassing, neglecting, or refusing this ordeal that Robin Williams had taken his own life by suicide. Like I said, it sucks, it is sad, it is what it is, he did what he did because that was how he was thinking. In my opinion, I do not think that was the "right" thing to do, because Life is much more than anyone makes it out to be, but he was entitled to his own beliefs, opinions and actions. It just so happens to be that he was not clear or did not have clarity of mind as to what truly needed be...(Read More)
