How Ridiculous

I am all about lists, my daily "to do list," my ever changing "grocery list" & then there are the more serious lists that include my "life goals, dreams & aspirations." I need these lists to function & keep me on track, but this week I decided to make a completely different kind of list. A list of things that will help me focus on the pure joy of living & rediscover the inner child that is in all of us. These are the simple things in life that make us laugh, bring us closer together & transport us back to a time when stress was a word we didn't yet understand. So here is the first edition of "The Most Ridiculous list" I hope you will chuckle as you read them, make a plan to partake in at least one or two this week & my all means add more ridiculous things to the list.


The Most Ridiculous List:


Find a four leaf clover & believe it will bring you luck.


Bravely stand before complete strangers & become a Karaoke queen.


Take time to put your toes in the sand & build yourself a castle.


Forget your worries & your age, start a pillow fight.


Get in touch with a time gone by & milk a cow.


Laugh so hard you pee your pants...just a little.


Don't run indoors when it starts to rain, find your someone special & kiss them.


Put on your play clothes & get dirty with a game of mud football.


Dance like a fool at someones wedding...maybe your own.


Put your clothes in a safe place & go skinny dipping.


Eat Ice cream for dinner, at least once.


Dye your hair an unnatural color...if you dare.


The next time someone says "go fly a kite" do it!


Pretend your a giggling teenager again & play spin the bottle.


Need a stress release, go to a haunted house & scream your head off!


Don't throw the dishes or the phone when your angry, simply throw a snowball.


No bedtimes here, stay up all night doing whatever you like.
