Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about life and what kind of person I would like to be. When I’m lying on my death bed (assuming i get that courtesy and don’t die in another, more random and quick fashion), would I rather look back and regret decisions I made, or decisions I didn’t make? For now, I’ve come to the conclusion that I would rather live TOO much life than not enough life. I’ve only got one shot at this life, and I’m going to try and make the most of it I can. Too many people spend their days nervous and shy and wondering “should I…. what will they think…. but it’s embarrassing..” Life is too short to ask yourself those questions. If you want something, go for it. Don’t ask for permission, don’t think twice (unless it’s life or freedom threatening). Some of the happiest people I know are also the most impulsive and spontaneous. Now I’m not saying take it to an unhealthy level, but too an extent being impulsive and spontaneous (from what I’ve observed), can make your life random, amazing, happy, and you never fret about the things you DIDN’T do. If you’re one of those people that like planning and to have everything planned out and not take any random chances, that’s fine, but just try living on the edge one time. You might find it suits you to not play it safe every once in a while.
