Life done right, some fun things to do

Life done right, some fun things to do

Life should be fun and exciting. It does not have to cost money to have fun. When you learn to experience and love the wonder of the world your life will be rich.
Find an open space, park or countryside and go for a walk. Find a tree and say hello to it. Then really examine the tree, feel its bark and leaves, test the spring of its branches, give it a hug. Tell the tree it is good looking.
Look at other plants and animals and admire them, notice the way they grow and move. Let them know that they are beautiful.
Some of that may sound silly but a little silliness goes a long way. Learn to play and be an idiot.
Do not worry about what other people will think of you. They are usually stuck in their own problems and are often jealous, wishing that they could break loose. People have told me that I am weird, I say "Why thank you, I would hate to be normal", they usually laugh and I laugh with them. Do not go out of your way to be weird, you will get more respect and make more friends by being your true self.
Curiosity may kill the cat but it brings people to life. Hey I am a Leo, the big cat, I am supposed to be curious. Become curious about all of life, find things that you never noticed before. Learn something new every day. Creation is a wonderful thing, watch the birds soar, notice how plants grow even in the most unlikely places. Have you ever wondered what the birds are singing about, or why rainbows always paint their colors the same way?
Do not take life seriously, some things can be important but they should not be serious. Learn to laugh at the ridiculous things that we do, learn to laugh at yourself.
Every morning when you wake up say, out loud, "Hello world" and smile, even if you have to fake it at first. I start my day by looking out the window and saying "what a great day, Thank you." If it is raining and grey I might say "Watering the plants today? Thats good, I like plants".
If you have a problem that seems too heavy, go out and try to convince the world how serious it is. Try to tell the stars that your problem is the end of the world, tell a tree how bad things are. It will almost feel like they are laughing. Life goes on, in a week or a few months the problem is usually gone and you will wonder why you worried about it.
Learn to love yourself, you are unique. You are the best person in the world at being you. Everyone has something to offer the world, do not waste it by staying locked in, reach out. There are a lot of people out there who would love to get to know you, give them the chance.
Live, laugh and send your love into the world, it will come back.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection. Buddha
