Just be silly and have fun.

A friend sent me this quote last night: -

"Oh my God, what if you wake up some day, and you're 65, or 75,

 and you never got your memoir or novel written; 

or you didn't go swimming in warm pools and oceans all those years, 

because your thighs were jiggly and you had a nice big comfy tummy; 

or you were just so strung out on perfectionism and people-pleasing that you forgot to have a big, juicy, creative life, of imagination and radical silliness and staring off into space, like when you were a kid? It's going to break your heart. Don't let this happen."

- Anne Lamott

This quote spoke to me. It made a few things click.

Why am I focusing on all of the things I should be/or not be doing?

My weight? Who cares... Let's go swimming!

Why didn't I dance at my beautiful friend Renae's wedding? I'm sure the crowd would have loved my kangaroo, shopping trolley and whipper snipper moves on the dance floor.

I am anxious day and night about things I cannot change.

What if I wake up one day and ask myself  "What have you done with your life? Have you lived?"

I don't ever want to ask myself that question. I want to be too busy living life, to have time to question it.

I'm going to just be silly and have fun.

That's all.
