The gift of life

I think about the gift of life often and what I'm doing to repay the world for the many blessings I've been given.  This story from the NYTimes articulates what I often have trouble saying:  The gift of life, though heavy and difficult as it is, need not be a burden.  One way to keep from feeling the daily burdens of our gift is to share it with others.  This climber's story is incredible and thought provoking:  What do you do to feel alive?
