So here I find myself, 10:30 pm on a Thursday wondering what the heck I'm doing with my life. And then I think to myself, "Start a blog! Why not? Everyone else is doing it!" Because that's a logical reason. What will I post? Who knows! Maybe something about my somewhat recent and kind of insane interest in exercising. Maybe my frustrations with trying to figure out what I want to do with my life. No, I know what I want to do with my life. I just haven't figured out how to make it all happen yet.
I'd like to say my life is exciting. As a vibrant, young 20-something, you'd think it would be. And, dog-gone-it, why shouldn't it be? I watched the end of "Yes Man" the other night and it got me thinking... How exciting would life be if we said "Yes" a little more often? Not as recklessly as Jim Carrey's character, but within reason. One of the best experiences I've ever had was brought on by a momentary lapse of judgment when I was asked if I wanted to go skydiving. "Sure!" I said. The closer we got to the drop zone, the more nervous I got. And when we couldn't jump, I thought I was going to explode! All that for nothing but shot nerves! I decided not to change my mind about the whole thing and when we finally got to jump out of that plane (after constantly wondering what was wrong with me) it was awesome! Definitely an experience I would never trade and one I have repeated and want to continue to repeat. Why not say yes? Open up to new experiences!
Maybe that's why I started this blog. You never know what can happen. So I ask myself, "What have I got to lose?"
