Celebrate Survival or Celebrate Life?


The other day I heard a pastor talking about “celebrating life” as he referred to someone who had come through a difficult illness and was alive.  I believe he meant, in context, that he was celebrating survival.  No mention was made about how the person lived, or plans to live.

Think about it.

Did : the person plan to think?
·      Was the person planning to relate more and better with other people who touch his/her life?
·      Has the person committed to being a better employee or better boss?
·      Will the person spend more time appreciating life, sunsets, music, or art?
·      Has the person one more invention to sketch out and bring to reality?

In my estimation the celebration of life includes the above and more than I can mention here.  Survival – not so much.
