Some philosophy
So a lot has been happening in my life recently. I won't go into details, but i was thinking today and I may have created myself a mantra. I'm not a big believer in mantras, so hopefully this serves to some as a gut check, or a motivator if you need one
If you feel strongly about a person in your life, you should tell them how you feel, because you never know when the opportunity to do so will pass you by.
So make a move. Put yourself out there. Take the risk of being eaten by the pack of wolves called society. Be vulnerable. Allow yourself to take some hits. Maybe you'll bust your chin open, or send your heart through a salad shooter. But at the end of the day you'll know you tried.
And should you not be able to negotiate your happiness along this way, you may realize for all the pain you put yourself through, you still followed a path that leads to the sum of fewest regrets.
And if you can come away from the stage that is your life, and say 'I did all that I could to get the most out of my life' Then, and only then have you actually lived.
So wake up and push the envelope today. Live.
