Have you ever tried taking a cold shower in the middle of extreme winter or have run in the midst of a summer when the temperature is well above 100 degrees Fahrenheit?
When is the last time you played with the kids, not like an adult coaching them but like being one of them?
Did you ever sing under the shower, screaming like a rock star or maybe dared to record your voice and played it in the car for everyone to listen.
When your kids are busy with their screens, have you tried telling them stories about your mischievous past, cracking them up in such a way that they forget about their ostensible video games?
How often you lie on your bed gazing the ceiling pretending to be a superhuman solving the world’s most difficult problem.
Have you tried living your life in the most unconventional, bizarre and unpredictable way? And if you have not, when are you going to? Life is too short to be taken seriously. Be that craziest fun loving happy person that you have ever known in your lifetime.
