We are addressed as dynamic toastmasters, yes we are dynamic toastmasters, but are our lives dynamic as such? Or is it only our toastmaster journey being dynamic but not our life.
What do you really want in life? What does everybody want? Of course the answer is we want to live a dynamic life. What is life? It is vitality, dynamic energy, freedom and growth. It is a deep sense of well-being. It is to be fully vital and vigorous. It is useful participation of worthwhile activities. It is the satisfaction of creating something, doing something useful to society, and giving something to others in need.
Unfortunately many people do not have the quality that equals this description. They are filled with gloom and apprehension. They suffer fear, discouragement and frustration. Their spirits have been sapped on vitality, they are lethargic and apathetic. It is almost as terrible to be as sleeping when you should be wide awake.
Your life is meant to be fully alive and dynamic. You are designed to have vigor of body, mind and spirit throughout your life. In studying life, it is observed that many persons have been amazed by the magnetic quality of life sometime demonstrate. Your spirit can stay alive through long years if you keep your mind and heart alive. If your spirit is alive and not inactive, that very fact helps to keep the mind and body well-toned up. This is what everybody wants, to be alive in every element of their life.
A person should be so eager about everything that, actually, he can hardly wait for the morning to get started again in his daily activities. Life should be made to be fascinating. We are designed to have enthusiasm freshly renewed every day.
So as dynamic toastmasters, we shall make our lives dynamic from today onwards.
