Sometimes I Need To Think Less And Experience More

Throw caution to the wind and do whatever comes to mind every so often. It rejuvenates a person's whole sense of being when they switch things up and have fun just for the sake of having fun. I've come to the conclusion that I need to do much more of this myself.

All too often I let life steer me wherever it wants and I don't focus on enjoying it the way I should. There are times when I pass up opportunities to social or kick back and then I nearly always wish I hadn't. Too many missed chances and I could find myself wondering just where I could be had I walked down all those other paths I previously skipped by. 

Since I've chosen to live my life with fewer regrets, I realize that I first need to accept the choices I make, but that I also need to really consider my choices carefully to make sure I don't give myself reason for regret later. I can't always stay on the practical, safe side of things. Sometimes fun requires stepping out of the comfort zone, or even just pushing past the fatigue or a full day. 

Each time I step outside my comfort zone, my life gets better. When I make choices, I weigh the pros and cons, but I also consider how taking the risk would make me feel overall. I like not overthinking things for responsibility sake; I like putting my gut in the position to make choices. Some of my best moments have come about this way. I recently such a choice and I have no doubt that it will lead to a great and happy place. The wind is blowing... :)
