"Stop and smell the roses."
This is a saying that I wish I could apply to my life. But I just don't know how to re-train my personality to do so.
Kelly, Rita and I were having a convo. the other night about how I am always "rush around" and they are always "can we please just take our time". I wish I could just slow everything down so that I didn't always feel like there is more fun to be had. Know what it is? I have to work on MY schedule. I am one of those people that never just ups and does something. Everything I do has to be thought out and planned. For example, if a friend invites me to lunch at 10am that day...I will always say no. Even if I don't have plans, I would still rather not do anything, cuz mentally I didn't have time to prepare myself. It is becoming kind of an obsession.
I love going out and getting drinks. But if you don't ask me to do it at least 2 days in advance, the odds of me going with you are slim, but mostly slim to none. With a focus on the none.
"Stop and smell the roses."
Spontanaiety and I are good friends. But only when I am ready for it a week in advance. Hmph. I need to lighten up a bit.
