Why don't most people live for today?
Why do we not wake up and act as though it may very well be our last day?
I know none of us would want tomorrow to be our last day, but who knows what tomorrow is going to bring?
Why sacrifice happiness today because you know it may come to an end days, months, or years from now?
Why can't people just do what they really want to do?
Why do we start saving for retirement at 2 instead of taking our newly wed on another vacation or buying that new car?
Why not buy the brand name food? You know it tastes better.
Why don't people just jump already?
Or lean in for that first kiss both parties know they want?
What affect does any one person have on your life more than yourself?
Who cares if someone sees you dance?
Who cares if you can't sing?
Why stop looking like fool when you see the person in the next car staring at you?
Are they going to come up to your door 15 years from now and say only, "Hey, remember when we were at the corner of Broadway and Cache and I saw you singing and dancing? Well you're life was a failure because of that." No way in hell.
Why not take a night to yourself and watch the sunset?
Why not read a good book?
Why not try to cook something new?
Why not take a long weekend off of work just because?
Why not try and publish writings?
Why not speed once in a while to get some adrenaline going?
Break a few rules.
Sneak out. Blare your music. Go skinny dipping. Throw an egg or two. Eat too much junk food. Sing Karaoke. Laugh hysterically. Jump from a bridge. Hit the big jump on the slope.Just freakin' do something so you're not lying on your death bed regretting that fact that you never did any of it.
Excuse my cliche-ness about all of this, but its true; the majority of people live in fear. Fear of what? Death? Guess what? It's going to happen. It is inevitable.
It's time for parents to stop being for fricken paranoid. Let your kids get dirty and play in the mud. Let them scrap a knee, they'll learn. Let them off on their own now and then, they won't get lost.
I'm sick of the media putting fear into everyone household with nothing but negative stories. Now half of America thinks the other half is out to get them, because like one person in 79,000 is a sex offender. Screw the Judicial system. Peeing on a building should not get you put on the sex offenders list. Nor should streaking or flashing. That's just people having a good time, why punish that?

Queen Elizabeth once said, when asked on how to have a happy life, "Empty what's full, fill what's empty, and scratch where it itches."
Amen to that.

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
So many people in this world are afraid to take that first step because they may not know exactly what the next thousand miles my hold. With the right mentality, you're going to have a better chance of finding great things in your life's journey than disappointments.


Now I'm not saying I'm freakin' perfect in this sense of life, but at least I can say try more often than not. I try not to live with any regrets, at some point I wanted it. What really bugs me is when people can't grow a pair and it somehow effects me. No, what bugs me the most, is how I let other people's actions (or lack there of) effect me.


Sorry for all the venting.
