Fun Musings: A Philosophy on Life


One.  Wake up.

Two.  Be awesome.

Three. Go back to bed!

Four.  Repeat steps 1 through 3 for as long as you live.

Wake up because it is the first step towards being awesome.

Be awesome because that’s the whole point in waking up in the first place,

for how can you feed me the appetizer and then deny me the feast?! 

It’s what life is about; being awesome.  Whatever awesome

means to you, speak it, do it, be it. Embody awesomeness.

Go back to bed because it completes the cycle of being awesome. 

It lets you recuperate after a long day of being awesome.

Repeat steps 1 through 3 for as long as you live because

being awesome is not just a one-time experience, it’s not a hit-and-run,

it’s not just a one night stand.  Being awesome should be your life’s purpose.

And this, my friends and fellow humans, is as simple as life will ever be.
