That is what we must do when we fully know the purposefulness of life - live it gloriously by living it ecstatically. We can live it ecstatically only as we know the ecstatic nature of God and become like Him through being continually inspired by communion with Him.

The freedom to express yourself without fear - that perhaps is something we in the U.S. take for granted.
