Eighteen

This post might be a mix of many things. Since many days I have been thinking of writing about all the resolutions I have been making inside my head. Life throws so many things at us and for some of us on a daily basis. So everyday we need to motivate ourselves and everyday we tell ourselves that we are a changed person or going to change. But I really wonder, if it is possible to change, from within? Of course we can believe that we have changed. But our core nature, our core values that we believe in, does it ever change? May be we do change, but with a lot of battle against ourselves. Its worth the fight if we actually change, right?

Few things that I have been working on:

Embracing everything and everyone, no matter how they are or what the situation is. Just embrace with no questions being asked and without judging (who in the world are we to judge anyone or anything?!!!?)

Giving the benefit of doubt to others (every single person we interact with) - this mantra is like magic, it can change how we feel drastically.

Not doubting ourselves. We are the way we are, due to our experiences, and the values we believe in.

It is funny, as I am typing, the song - "18 till I die" by Bryan Adams starts playing. Life is so easy if we just follow that :p :p

Let's just sing along instead of thinking so much :D

Wanna be young the rest of my life
Never say no try anything twice 
Til the angels come and ask me to fly
Gonna be 18 til I die - 18 til I die

Can't live forever that's wishful thinkin'
Who ever said that must of bin' drinkin'
Don't wanna grow up I don't see why
I couldn't care less if time flies by
 
18 til I die - gonna be 18 til I die
Ya it sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55, 18 til I die
 
Anyway I just wanna say
Why bother with what happened yesterday
It's not my style I live for the minute
If ya wanna stay young get both feet in it, 18 til I die

A little bit of this a little bit of that
Little bit of everything gotta get on track
It's not how ya look, it's what ya feel inside
I don't care when I don't need ta know why
 
18 til I die gonna be 18 til I die
Ya it sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55, 18 til I die
 
Ya there's one thing for sure I'm sure gonna try
 
Don't worry 'bout the future
Forget about the past
Gonna have a ball, yeah we're gonna have a blast 
Gonna make it last
 
18 til I die gonna be 18 til I die
Ya it sure feels good to be alive
Someday I'll be 18 goin' on 55, 18 til I die
 
Gonna be 18 til I die
I'm gonna be 18 til I die
18 til I die
