One sentence out my mouth more often than others is "Life is something else". Why? Because it freakin is! Currently having wine and jokes with my awesome best friend, a woman I swear I don't deserve to have. And she gets on the subject of "what is life, and what the hell do we do with it?" In our late 20s at varying stages of establishment...that question can be tough to answer if you haven't mulled it over already. She says its about either avoiding life's bumps or getting back up from them. Preparing yourself to absorb or reflect the offenses just waiting for you every moment. But I disagree. Unless what you're doing makes you happy, you aren't living.
One thing that makes you appreciate life are those that loose theirs...the multiple RIPs in my life and yours were enough to look back on the bs mistakes and LAUGH. Like.."Wait, hold up...Homie you were trippin over that?! Bwaaahahahaaaaaa!! Man shut up!" Yes just like that. Do what makes you insanely, incoherently, ineligibly, and undoubtedly happy.....and lucky for us happiness is relative. The folks who pissed you off? OH WELL move on. Didn't get your way? OH WELL move on. Not a perfect childhood? OH WELL move on. Couple of bad break ups? OH WELL move on. Key words MOVE ON. Because I'll be damned if any of my last few moments consisted of me wrapped up in shoulda, coulda, woulda, why nots, and tears. I have today.. *correction* ...WE have today. And Damnit, Today is great! Here's to tomorrow being equally great. And if it isn't? Well, you know what to do.
*hint* move on
Namaste
