Movies. Again. Mel Gibson is Braveheart. Set in medieval times, the courageous Braveheart is imprisoned in the castle tower. This is his last night. Tomorrow he will be executed at the hands of the barbaric executioners - a terrible fate. The princess - his secret love - visits him... and smuggles in a poisonous potion. She pleads with him to drink the poison so that he may escape the torment and pain that lies ahead... Digging deep, Braveheart declares: All men die, but not all men have lived. He fears not death, no matter how it comes, because he has lived. Brave. Free. Proud. The question is: Have you? I wonder why we wait until we cannot see, before we look. Why do so many of us not realise the worth of what we have - until we lose it? Seize life! Go home early and hug your kids, walk in the rain, watch the sun rise. Tonight, look at the moon through an ordinary pair of field binoculars. You will see the craters! Eat ice cream for breakfast. Sleep late some days, work hard on other days. Live like it matters. Love. Care. Laugh. Cry. Make every day count. Well-worn words. Youve heard them a thousand times. In fact, you could have written this piece. We all know the words - but do you live by them?
