School, work, marriage, house, kids.. I followed this traditional formula until the universe shook me somewhere in the middle. This is clearly not the pattern for me.
I have been taking life far too seriously. I had a mental to-do list comprising of what I like to refer to as “life’s little completions.” I ticked them along the way, never truly enjoying and engaging with the moment at hand. “What’s next?” I always asked myself.
So now after this universal shake up, I have slowed right down. I have gone back to basics. Trying every day to be truly in the moment.. trying not to let the unknown surprises of the future cast fear and doubt in my mind.
Because what could possibly go wrong? Every problem has a solution, right? I just need to be creative with my problem solving. Whatever will be, will be.
Fact: 10 out of 10 people die. So don’t take life too seriously.
