New Year’s Resolution #5: Live life to the fullest.

The majesty palm, Ravenea rivularis, is a robust tropical palm that originates in Madagascar. It tends to grow along riverbanks in humid environments. It gets its name from the majestic appearance of a full-grown specimen – perhaps living life to its fullest? Unfortunately, it is thought that there are less than 900 of these trees now growing in their natural habitat. It seems that while we humans want to live life to the fullest, we tend to reduce that ability for rest of our planet’s inhabitants.

Perhaps living life to the fullest should mean:

Philippians 4:11-13
Matthew 6:33-34
Psalm 37:4
