The Kid In Me


Seeing snow yesterday really brought out a side of me that I kind of forgot about.

The kid in me.

Too many times in life people forget about the things that really make them happy. We get so caught up in our future that we forget to enjoy the moments we have now.

Yesterday I was awoke by my roommate Cameron in excitement letting me know that it was snowing outside.

I was so excited that i went outside, crust in my eye, in shorts, a t-shirt and my roommates shoes half on my feet just to see.

After "some" of my excitement went down I looked at what I had on and thought to myself.."It's cold as hell out here!"

After changing my clothes i came back outside to throw snowballs, catch snow flakes on my tongue, run relays with my friends and just have fun!

When we came back inside I realized that I really had a lot of fun out there.

There were no girls in tight skirts, there was no money involved, no liquor, no music, no club.

Just me and my friends acting like we were 9 years old.

Growing up we think getting older is so cool. We see the freedom that adults have, the money, and the "life."

But as kids we forget to see what we have, or had.

Think about it, all we had to do was homework, eat, shit, play and sleep! We had no bills to worry about, no exams, work or boyfriend, girlfriend problems. Well maybe some of you did.

The point I'm trying to make is that with all the stress that life brings. School, tuition, bills, relationships, business, and just overall drama, its good to just stop, take a deep breath and just enjoy life.

I want everyone to stop what there doing right now, and just remember what it was like to be a kid.

And the next time you get a chance, take advantage and be a kid! Be carefree, forget about all your problems, all of your stress and just enjoy.

Then let me know how you feel.

  2. I agree! Even thinking of when we were back in high school we had a lot less to worry about then we do now. We definitely need to have our kid moments every once in a while and just be worry free :-)
