I’m definitely not talking about rich-money wise! I’m talking about rich in life! Rich in experience and travels!
The more enriched you are with life and it’s goodness, the more you can share, build interesting stories and relate to people. It’ll bring this aura about you…Most importantly, it’s for yourself, so:
1. TRAVEL
I find global people, very intriguing because of their capacity to understand people and thirst for adventure. There’s so many amazing cultures and experiences waiting for you. GO FOR IT!
2. INDULGE IN HOBBIES
Not only does this give you a balance to your life of work and play, but it’s a healthy outlet. Having fun hobbies also reflect who you are and she/he would love to hear all about it!
3. VOLUNTEER
Give yourself. This is a sure way to fill your life up with more meaning and connect with people. Your compassion will lead your heart in the right direction.
4. LAUGH
Take yourself lightly and laugh. Go to comedy clubs. Reminisce great memories with friends. Watch Dave Chappelle’s ‘Killing Them Softly’. Visit failblog.org. Laugh at the simple little things
Vanae’s tip of the dae: Live a rich life because happiness and depth is priceless. Go beyond your boundaries and absorb as much life as possible! I know I did, when I completed my marathon this past Sunday in Honolulu. All the people who stood in the rain at 6am to cheer us on! All the costumes that the marathoners were wearing. The 10 year old sons who ran along the side of mom and dad in the race. Most of all, pursuing and completing one of my life goals with all my loved ones and memories as fuel to the finish line.
How do you enrich your life?

A big congratulations to you! Good job.
You know, when it comes to traveling, I wish everyone could travel to different places and experience different cultures. The world would be less ignorant and bigotry would decline a lot.
i totally agree. traveling is so rewarding
You did it V! All the physical, mental and spiritual prep paid off. You will have that moment forever. I find that preparing for a big event in ones life is just as satisfying as accomplishing the goal. I often reflect on my trainning days,at 5:00 am. Just me against myself. The only thing that realy mattered was that I did my best. I will continue to challange myself in some way until my last day. I to believe that you can make a diffrence and that people have the ability to change thier lives. I live my life by this creed. (I am a juvenile probation officer) Again congradulations.

thanks for the congrats storman!
it’s definitely one of my biggest accomplishments of 2008!
Dear Vanae,
I regularly check you blog and… even though it is very nice and cute and all that kind of stuff…
but there is something wrong about it.
You get to travel, to by funny, to be smart, to be this and that and so on…
I was like that for a very long time.
Of course it works!… but does it work with yourself? does it work with your true personality?
The most important is to be yourself and to accept it. No to twist yourself according to other desires.
hey sam, thanks for being a V’star. not sure if i understand your comment, but:
my blog is a true reflection of me in my entirety: what i stand for, my personality and what i advocate.
you’re right: you must be ‘true to yourself’. that is one of the key things i promote. and one can be true to themselves while enriching their life for better living. i LIVE life in richness as much as possible.
hope that addresses what you wrote. let me know if it doesn’t.
=)
vanae
uh… failblog.com isn’t actually a blog. it’s some weird search engine thing that you get when you type in a wrong address.
thanks for pointing that out, josh. i made the change =)
I totally agree with you, Vanae. By the way, I haven’t checked your website for a while. You surprised everytime I come back with ideas that a normal lady won’t be able to think of. You just simply amazing!
aww thanks tano! means a lot to me
and thanks for being a V’star!
Awwww your first marathon finish. Woo hoo!
Did I read that correctly? You had a lot of your loved ones there, too?
Aweseomeness, Vanae, just pure awesomeness….
my loved ones couldnt make it to hawaii, but they were on my mind. hooray for awesomeness!
Hi Vanae!…liked very much this post; I agree with you. Sam, to complete your idea, of course you should always be “true to yourself”, and you can achieve this by traveling to places you would like to visit, indulging yourself with your hobbies, and doing things that you really enjoy. The experiences/stories you collect along the way will enrich your life, and will give you memories to share with other people. In the end, all this will only make you a more interesting person.
thnx 4 the post V . I agree with u , but in the VOLUNTEER point , some people don’t deserve it .
