“I’m not afraid of dying. I’m afraid not to have lived.”Wim Hof
In modern life, this quote reminds us to prioritize experiences and growth over just existing. Instead of fearing the unknown, we should focus on making the most of each day. For example, rather than letting a fear of failure hold you back from trying a new hobby, embrace the opportunity to fully live and learn from the experience.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.
The verse highlights the importance of embracing life fully and abundantly. By living without fear and seizing opportunities, we can experience the richness of life that God intends for us. This aligns with the Stoic pillar of Courage, which emphasizes facing challenges and fears with bravery and resilience.
