Cars And All Things Shiny


What makes you happy?
Do you feel rushed all the time? Countless things to do with no time to do it? Do you ever stop to think.. is this making me happy? Why am I doing this? What do I WANT to do? Rather than: What do I NEED to do?
Also.. Does this sound like the beginning of a cheesy infomercial?? haha

Life is short.. I'm sure you've heard it so many times before.
Why waste time doing stuff that doesn't make you happy? Granted there are some things that you don't want to do that you need to do.. Example: I don't love cleaning my apartment, in fact I hate it. But I love the results. So it indirectly makes me happy.

A lot of people waste a lot of time being sad. This is the worst waste of time. There are so many good things you can be happy about so I can't understand why anyone would want to focus on the bad things in life. Ya.. you think you're life sucks and things can't get any worse and "why me"..*teeny tiny violin* STOP whining... There ARE worse things that could happen.

Wait.. stop everything right now. Put down your ipod, your remote, your cell phone, lift your hands away from the mouse and keyboard.

What makes you happy? Seriously...

Examples: (this would be my list.. but just a start to get you going)
Brand Spanking New Shiny Cars (VWs baby!)
Warm Gooey Fudgy Brownies, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Big Hugs, Little Kisses

Now you absolutely hate me cause I've given you two rants telling you to believe in something, be passionate, and be happy. And I've criticized the whiners…

Ps. If you've actually read this far I'm extremely impressed.. you may possibly have less of a life than me :p
Pps. Sorry to those of you who actually thought I was going to write about cars..
