This is an unusual post for me because I'm usually very serious in my posts. But lately I finding myself wondering why we are all so political. Don't misunderstand, I don't mean in the sense of being republicans or democrats but, not many people are having FUN anymore. In the past, I'd preach on achieving your goals while having fun doing it and their were many followers of that same theory. But lately, people feel the need to be melancholy about too many subjects.
Recently, I joined a group in support of encouraging people to reduce, reuse, and recycle. I'm noticing that the group is "hell bent" on making this a political event. They want to say that democrats want to clean the air and republicans want to keep the air polluted. My suggestion that republicans also want our air to be clean fell on deaf ears. I stated in my opinion that I don't think we should try to sway politcal preference by pretending republicans want dirty air! That's ridiculous!
This is only one example of how we are getting un-funny (for lack of a better word) and taking too many "things" to the extreme.
As for me, I've just decided to put on my fun coat and getting my happy back. If the world is going to "helena handbasket", mine is gonna be an Easter basket filled with lots of goodies! If I can't enjoy saving the world, then I'm going die trying (to enjoy saving the world, that is). Life is too short to be so serious about everything. And since my life isn't a dress rehearsal, I want mine to me funfilled! Anybody with me? Let me know.
