For those of you who know me well, you know I am a planner and an over-thinker when it comes to making plans and making decisions. But lately, I have adopted a new philosophy on life.
I have decided to be more spontaneous and stop planning every step of my life. It's inevitably ended in a couple of 'what was I thinking?' moments but the fun has far outweighed it.
This new found spontaneity has been my way of avoiding reality and the stressful changes that have been happening in my life. I've had a feeling that all the excitement of the impromptu decision making would catch up to me eventually but I was having too much fun living in the fast lane.
There's never a dull moment being a 22 year old in a new town but I had lost sight of some of the important things in life. It's amazing how just a few words can put life into perspective again.
I'm not saying that the spontaneity is going away anytime soon. In fact, I think that it's reinforced the idea that life is short and we have to enjoy every second but maybe I should slow down just a little every once in a while.
