Pet Peeve: Happy or No Worries
While procrastinating, I mean working really hard reviewing Facebook posts, I came across one that said "Freedom from Worry" and a young lady is standing under a ginormous ray of sunshine that is probably burning her retina, with her arms flung high in the sky.... Really? This is driving me crazy.... No worries. Happiness all the time. Get rid of anxiety all the time. Financial freedom working 4 hours a week. Live your life your way, all the time. Crush it! Killing it! I think I have a little puke in my mouth. This is selling snake oil. Life is about good and bad. We all have joys. We all take our lumps. We all have to figure out how to manage the challenges. Sometimes we are quietly comfortable with how it went. Sometimes we wanna crawl under a rock. Sometimes we beg for help whether we're screaming or holing up in our caves. Take the time to learn about you. Watch yourself. Write about it. Make a video about it. Write some more. Draw it out.
