Word for the Day: Live

Good morning everyone!  Well, it is a beautiful Tuesday morning and the sun seems to want to shine all day.  Thank goodness for that.  Not that I am complaining about our freezing cold winter.  I do, after all, live in South Dakota, and I choose to stay here.  Crazy, I know… but I really enjoy the winter for the most part.  Yet, when it extends into several months of bone chilling cold and wind, it gets old really fast.  I begin wishing for Spring and can feel when its fever is upon me.  Who wouldn’t have spring fever, after being locked up in a house for three months or more of cold, wind, rain, sleet and snow?  I know what you’re thinking, she is whining again; but really I’m not, it’s just a matter of time now.  Maybe I am a little impatient, but I can take it.  After all, the wait is almost over and the beauty of Spring is just around the corner.  I can’t wait to get outside, just to smell the fresh air and do a little putzing around the garden.  So I am thankful that the sun is shining and that we are almost to that beautiful season of Spring.

Well, enough about the weather.  Let’s get down to the nuts and bolts of this blog.  Today’s word of the day comes to us from the always beautiful Suzane J of New Underwood, SD.  She has chosen the word Live.  Another great word and for some reason it seems to fit with today’s atmosphere.

Our definition comes from our online source at www.thefreedictionary.com

Well, I am pretty sure that if you are reading this blog then you have read the book Immortal Lost.  If you haven’t, you better get a copy and indulge yourself.  In the book both Alessar and Gelmir want to save the life of Dylan, not to mention several supporting characters such as Mack and Mrs. T.  Yet it is in the second book, Dark Days, when we discover how important it is to live life to the fullest, because you never know when the darkness may come and evil could strike.  Check us out on Facebook and become a fan of the Prime Immortal.

Until next time… Read On!!!
