Do It!

Everyone at some time or another
has been sucked into someone else's drama.
I don't know about the rest of you, but that's just not my thing.
Most times, I prefer no drama, relative peace, with a live and let live attitude.

But sometimes, you get sucked in anyhow.

It's the same with someone else's dreams, whether its a big house in the country, a cozy shack in the woods, a modern apartment in the center of the city; a big family or no kids, a happy marriage, or the promise of a great job after college. And yes, sometimes I get sucked into that as well.

It's great to have dreams, we all have them, and should have them.  It's how we achieve the next steps in our lives, working towards our goals, our dreams.

With the economy the way it is right now, sometimes those dreams, those goals, take longer.  What  happens, though, when you have reached a few of your dreams?  A friend who's about the same age as I am was talking to me about life in general, and where we're at in our lives.  We both own our houses, but money's tight as hours are cut at work.  We sat there asking each other the usual 'how are things going' questions, and came up with the conclusion that at our age, we're kind of boring! as nothing is going on in our lives.

That's when we decided that this isn't what life's about - we need to be doing things now that the other parts of our lives are settled.  Life should be lived, take a few risks, travel to some place you've wanted to see.  Personally, I tend to do that with short day trips when I get the urge to take pictures, be one with nature.  But its time to venture further, to take a few overnight trips, and get out there, see more places, take some risks even if it means spending a little extra money.

Because life's too short to have a life that revolves around going to work and back every day. 
I don't like quoting corps, but like Nike says... Just Do It !
