New outlook on life
Thursday, May 1st, 2008Well this july I am going to be turning 30 and like that country song says…
I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years
Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years
My next thirty years I’m gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I’m doing here
In my next thirty years
Oh my next thirty years, I’m gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I’ll remember my next thirty years
My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here ,In my next thirty years
In my next thirty years
So that has led me towards being all introspective and contemplative on what the heck is going on. I basically decided that for the rest of my life I am going to have fun. If that means being odd(er) just to make someone else smile I guess I am going to have to take that risk. Since I have come to this realization of being I have finally been able to describe true happieness.
Picture if you will sitting on a park bench in the springtime you are watching some water being all calm when a guy in a Santa suit comes up on a skateboard throwing confetti and passing out Guinness. He gives you the thumbs up as a marching band comes charging through to play a waltz as you and the love of your life go skipping off into the sunset.
Yeah I’m that fucking happy
