remember not to take life too seriously

This is really killing me, I have developed two faces over a lifetime, and none of those faces is what I used to be. I take life way too seriously, and I am shocked I am still alive and somehow healthy. Someone is watching over me.

If you can’t have fun in everything you do what’s the point of life?

A never ending battle, but worth the effort.

A few years back I was too serious for my own good and it ended up nearly destroying me and making me too tired to live.

But realizing that life is only as serious as you make it gave me a whole new lease on life, and I will NEVER go back.

There are too many good things you’ll miss out on if you do!

My grandmother passed away in January of this year. She is the first person I have ever lost that I have been so close to and it hasn’t been easy. Her death put a lot in perspective. So many times I get caught up in the little things, complain about things that are so miniscule in comparison to what really matters in life. Dwelling on not having a boyfriend or not having enough money aren’t things that I should consume my thoughts all the time. I need to start living life, enjoying every minute because before you know it is gone. I wear my grandmother’s ring as a reminder to not let things get to me and start living.

It is difficult the older you get the more pressures and stress keep adding on. I want to not take my job too seriously and not take people too seriously. I find too much that I get wrapped up in something that is making me angrier or sadder instead of focusing on all the great things I have in my life. I want to have fun again and not stop worrying about the day to day bs!!
