Today I did. Today I mapped a 4.5 mile run and went for it, I biked to the docks and laid in the sun with a friend, I put my feet in the water, I went to coffee with an acquaintance and was honest, I went to dinner at a Thai restaurant with more acquaintances, I made daisy chains, watched I Love Lucy, I ate cheesecake, made CD’s, and did stuff. I have a very unmotivated disposition that I would not completely blame simple laziness, and often when it comes to making the decision to do something, or do nothing, I do nothing. Or at least very little. But a good friend reminded me today the value of getting out and living life, having adventures, enjoying the small stuff, enjoying the company of those you don’t know well, and taking hold of the day, the moment, and opportunity. When I was sixteen I was in my “Yes Man” phase. I was very happy. I need to remember the value of living and jump in and start experiencing because it is so very worth it.5/1/11
