Do something you love

 

It isn't just what you say that matters. It is what you do.

If all you do is sit and moan, nothing will change. At least nothing for the better. 

There are people who simply do what is necessary to get by and while we all do that sometimes, if you make a habit of it, you miss a lot.

People need to figure out what makes them happy and do that!

That!

Whatever that is: playing with miniature dollhouses, or trains, playing guitar and singing, painting, crocheting, something that is fun to do even if it serves no other purpose. That is part of living.

There is no awards ceremony, that I am aware of, at the end of a life, that hands out certificates for the most work done. There are no martyr awards unless you are willing to die burning at the stake and settle for a paragraph in some distant history book. 

If we have children, we need to raise them so they understand how to get along in the real world. There is work, play, some meditation and some musing, but all one thing and not the others makes one a very dull, and unhappy, person.

Don't just do something.

Do something you love.
