Rainbows and Butterflies


So let me first say if you read my list, #1 states I hate conformity. I suppose the more mature (yes that sounds better than older) I get the more I realize to let go and be me. I have to confess I used to "buck" the system just for the fight. To stay original, but I realize I just want to be me now. Sometimes......I will have to submit to the social norms such as the lated fads, including "the 25 things lists".

I have really enjoyed reading these lists. I felt liberated in writing mine and I believe I wasn't the only one who did. People are putting some laughter, compassion, and investing personally in these things. While it's the feel-good movement of today, I also realize it won't last forever. (but I secretly hope something better grabs everyone's attention and draws them in.

I have been resistant to the 25 Things list. I know it's only a matter of time. Some things are inevitable.

You should check out my friend Randall's list. It's hilare.
