Last Friday night I contemplated ordering Silver Linings Playbook off the hotel tv.
I'd seen it before, but right when it came out...and I've been dying to see it again.
But, it was $14.99... And I preordered it already and knew I'd get it yesterday.
And it was 3:30am and I was exhausted.
I wish to fuck I'd have ordered it.
Because had I ordered it and watched it, I'd have gotten Robert DeNiro's pep talk about being in a moment and not letting it pass you by because it'll haunt you forever.
I'd have listened, and when the universe handed me a night full of moments, I'd have seized them so much better than I did.
Alas, I watched it last night and if I have to tattoo those fucking words onto my hand like a crib sheet,
I WILL NEVER FORGET THEM AGAIN.
Quit thinking, quit over thinking, quit being afraid of the outcome. You KNOW when you're swirling in serendipity...just embrace it. That's it.
Besides this...I'm also going to stop wishing I could do things that are actually going to make me happy in the long term...and DO them.
Starting with taking the steps to change my career.
My life is a series of extremes...extremely happy, extremely excited, extremely annoyed, extrememly let down.
I'm going to try to finally balance that shit out.
