Live, Laugh, Love" is a motivational three-word phrase that became a popular slogan on motivational posters and home decor in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
The phrase is an abridged form of the 1904 poem "Success" by Bessie Anderson Stanley which begins:
“He achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much”. **
The question remains - what does it mean to live well? Is living well measured in terms of success, wealth, power or even apparent happiness and laughter. We all know that beneath the surface things can be a lot different to what they appear to be.
The true meaning and enjoyment of life can only be discovered when your relationship with God is right. Living, laughing and loving are wonderful in those phases of life when we are privileged to enjoy them. But, in a corrupted fallen world life will not always be smooth. The believer in God and His Son, Jesus have turned to God for refuge and have a great hope, which is a firm and secure anchor of the soul.
‘He who has the Son has the life; he who does have the Son of God does not have that life,’ 1 John 5:12 (LSB).
