So this summer I have decided that i'm going to really try and not hold back. I'm going to play the "Yes within reason game". Allow me to explain. For a period of time when someone asks you out you HAVE to say yes. None of the "i'm too tried to go" Or "I have to get up early" excuses, you just have to say yes. The 'within reason' bit comes in when you do acutally have other plans or if someone asks you to do something that you morally do not want to do. But the yes game is a chance to be crazy and have ago at anything! Life is so much better when you start saying yes and start living. You have plenty of time to rest later in life.
I always looked at summers as a significant amount of time where I could start to find who I was. Then I learnt that you don't find yourself. You create yourself. So that is what I will be doing this summer. Creating my self in time for the next chapter of my life. Thats a scary thought... letting everything go and starting somewhere new. It's not easy, but someone once told me it's not about where you end up, but how you get there.
So I will be documenting my journey this summer in a hope that my dear readers will be inspired to go out and live there life. There is so much in this world. I have seen so much already, but I've barley scraped the surface. I'm not naive in the sense that I know that not everything is laughing and happy. Not everyday will be a good day. But in life you have to have the bad to appreciate the good. You have to have the bad to grow and become stronger. It helps us learn.
If your too afraid to lose sight of the shore you'll never have the courage to cross the sea.
So, who's ready to live a little?
