Take it Easy

6 months ago I was a different girl.
6 months ago I had a fiance.
6 months ago I lived with my parents.
6 months ago I worked 40 hours a week.
6 months ago I did not know how to "go with the flow."
6 months ago I had never touched alcohol.
6 months ago I did not have an open mind.
6 months ago I knew exactly where my life was going.

During these 6 months, yes, I have lost more of my innocence but I have gained experience. And with true knowledge and understanding I have changed my perspective. No longer am I on the fast track, I'm takin' it easy. Why rush through college, work for the man, get married, spend all your money on diapers, and then look back and only remember yourself stressing to get ahead? Now I have a life goal to live free. I want to experience all the good and bad life has to offer. Forget my planner, instead I want to live for the moment. Less work, more play. No more saving 80% of my paycheck, let's go buy some liquor and zaxby's! Goodbye relationships, hello independence. I don't no where my life is headed, no worries, I'm enjoying the ride and takin' it easy.

Thank you  Bonnaroo for channeling my inner peace child years ago. Mind, body and soul- all open for new experience

alone.

Finally. It has happened. And it feels so good. I'm sure I feel almost as a junky does when he gets his fix after a long sober week. My mind is rejuvenated and my body has energy. Some people feed off of others and get energy from socializing, not me. People actually exhaust me. Day after day they have been here. But finally I'm alone. Just me and my thoughts and at the moment I'm on this amazing "free your mind" high.
