Spontaneity

"If a man knows not what
harbor he seeks
 any wind is the right wind."


I may be one of the most indecisive people I know.   I suppose this quality of mine is what they call both  a “blessing and a curse.”  Choosing an entrée at restaurants with an exhausting task; as is grocery shopping.  As annoying as this may be to me, and whoever it is accompanying me, I find that indecisiveness tends to benefit me more often than not. 
As I have gotten older I have put in the practice the unwritten rule of “go with what feels right.”  When I have an important decision to make I usually go with my gut.  This method has proven itself to be the best way for me over and over.
I won the mud puddle sliding contest
This does not just apply to big or important decisions.  I have also found this method of conducting my actions to benefit my daily life and every day decisions.  Had I been responsible and gone to bed when I'd planned, I would have missed playing in that rainstorm.   If I had declined that date that I was hestiating about going on I would have missed out on all the memories and experiences that I recieved from that relationship.

I often find that some of my best and most beneficial experiences have been from "last minute" decisions.  So I say, “go with what feels right.”  I believe with all of my heart that some of our greatest moments come from acting on a whim

If you ever have a craving to throw
colored powder at another individual...
