Recently I have found myself overloaded with 'grown up things'. Looking for a 'grown up' job, planning a wedding, financial stuff...(we all know it's serious when stuff is involved). Each week and month is passing by so quickly and I find myself questioning and wondering what is the point (not in an a depressive way, more an inquisitive one). I really don't want to grow up being one of those people who work so much they can't enjoy life. Life is so so precious and needs to filled with fun, laughter and joy. You should make time to do the things you truly enjoy. Don't let time restraints or a boring working routine stop you from going out in the pouring rain and jumping in the puddles, drawing a picture, reading a book or writing some poetry. I have started to find parts of myself I had forgotten about recently and it has reminded me what life is really about. It is about spending time with the ones you care about, building a snowman with snow animal friends (whether you have work or not) and it is about finding that puddle (you know which one I'm talking about) and jumping in it. I know some people are fortunate enough to have careers that they love and enjoy so for any of you reading this....puddles are still there to be jumped in. I guess my point is, we can all get lost in life, so just take some time to discover, or should I say rediscover the things that you loved, the things that you still love, the things that made you who your today...

This is quite apt for me at the moment. I get so caught up in 'teacher mode' sometimes that I forget I'm only 25 and need some down time...think I'll go find some of those puddles :) xx
