Moderately Heavy to Comfortably Full
I guess you could take the word full and run with it in several areas such as full of @!#$#, or full tank of gas, no longer hungry, the house is full, and on and on and on... I would like to change the direction of full and compare it to our lives. When we come to this earth we have nothing and we are empty and ready to take on and experience everything life has to offer. As we grow we learn to walk, talk, read, etc. and this adds to our experience or our fullness. When we become teenagers we feel we are full and know all we need and send us out to the world; by the time we get into the world we realize we haven't even scratched the surface. In fact the older we get we realize the more we have been running on empty and how much we must catch up to try to fill our experiences. We work more, read more, play more, learn more, and still we can't fill up our fullness. This is life; we can not fill up our fullness nor can we expect to run out of things to learn and experience, otherwise we would shrivel up and become raisins. Most people that retire I believe leave this life early because they stopped trying to fill their fullness meter and gave up on life and its experiences. We must understand and know that we will never fill our fullness meter as its capacity rises as we learn; if we choose not to learn it drops along with our knowledge. We must be engaged in continuous learning and growing; we must press forward with a desire to gain all life has to offer. Did you know people can not take experiences and knowledge from you? Grab life by the horns, take control of your destiny, find the happiness along the way that will continually push your fullness meter up. In life you may get tired, you may get tied up, you can even get fed up, but you will never truly be full...
