the meaning of "live"

Earlier today, I met up with a woman that I admire to no end. We were talking about life and how we were living it. She was just purely radiating and her joy was contagious. I realized the way she was referring to the word "live" when she spoke was in a way that many people forget. This woman actually lives life. She doesn't go day to day completely various tasks, but she actually lives every day like it's her last. She takes leaps, stands up for herself, loves with no boundaries, and embraces others. There is nothing that she is afraid of, and she's not worried about what others make think or say about her.

How glorious, right? It was a refreshing reminder that I'm so grateful for.
