The thing that I want more than anything else today is to just be ME!! We are always playing some roles in life - like being a mom, a dad, a husband, a wife, a friend, an employee, a boss, a writer, a reader, a filmmaker, an actor, a lawyer, etc. Since we spend most of our day hours in playing one or more of these roles, we often forget to be ourselves. Have you ever paused for a second and thought about what you really want in life? I was thinking about this question and my thoughts took me to a point where I began to think what have I become? Is being a lawyer or a writer or a wife or all of these what makes ME or am I more than just these roles that I play for most of my waking hours?
As we are engaged in the rat race of life everyday trying to meet ends or to excel in our chosen fields, we tend to forget about the things we enjoyed when we were young and carefree, about the things which made us happy. Every once in a while, one should pause and look back at those things and maybe do one of those things - like play a sport you loved or listen to the music that made you forget all your worries and dance or the silly jokes that made you laugh till you cry!! The people who made you so happy once may now just be your facebook or what'sapp friends, but why not, every once in a while, get off the internet and go for a walk with those people or give the, a call. These people may remind you of things you forgot about yourself, things you loved once, the person you used to be. Once you know what makes you truly happy, the just go and do it. Don't wait for retirement or a future date to be able to do what you can do today. No one knows what the future holds, so NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOU TO DO WHAT IS BEST FOR YOU AS THERE MAY NOT BE A TOMORROW. Stop for a second and do what makes you happiest every once in a while.
