Escape the Matrix

Could it be that at the clearest point of our lives, the matrix that was our lives, fights to have us question our sanity? As children we sing out loud, joke with imagination, dream in color and trust with abandon. Slowly we are worn down to individuals afraid to show any real emotion. Skeletons of our youthful life. Taught that smiling at strangers is freaky and dancing when we hear music is uncool. In many ways I've come full circle. I refuse to wait until my bones are brittle before I return to that happy abandon. I sing and act silly wherever and wherever. I joke about the most serious subjects - hey, it's never that serious. Maybe it has changed the direction my soul was taking. Crippled by adulthood many of us suffer from love-of-life atrophy. Ingest the cure. Abandon the road map that sent you down Miserable Avenue and recognize that One-Shot-At-Life Highway runs more smoothly, has less jarring stops-and-starts and can even be driven in cruise control at times. See ya' at the destination...hopefully you considered making it a comfy ride.

Keep passin' the open windows...

One thing I enjoy about myself is that I do make time to enjoy life and make the most of things. My kid nature keeps me vibrant and energetic. I haven't come full circle as of yet, but I'm like 3/4 and almost there. I'm in a VW, rollin down the road. Next stop, Audi! The A8 is a real comfy ride...

I think the funniest comment that I've ever had someone say to me was, "You are trying to act like your a teenager". When asked what actions merited this, the only thing I was told was that I laugh a lot, keep active by going to different events and meet a lot of people. My response then was, I'm not trying to be a bitter old queen (with a quick look up and down at the person). Don't be mad at me because I'm enjoying MY life.
