Eleven

Be an eleven
Volume eleven (It’s louder than ten!)
Eleven o’clock (Yep, stay up ‘til then!)
Be outrageous
Over the top
Larger-than-life
Spontaneous
Kind—generous—courageous

Be the connection someone needs
To energize their soul
To feel good about themselves
To feel loved and needed

Bring the zip — the pizzazz
Pack the laughter and tears in your knapsack
Bring them with you
Maximum feeling

Talk about everything
“What if?” “Why?” “Just think about this…” Be yourself and encourage this in others
Be unique — with mystique — be a freak or a geek

Just be as much as you can be with the time you have left
You need to reach beyond the daily limit
Life won’t just happen to you without some effort
Seek it
Find it in the cracks
Get off your ass
