A Bolt of Fabulous

Testing, one, two, three, something has emerged on the scene, its the "YOLO" mentality! I am jumping on that band-wagon...today! Haha, I know its been said, rapped, hashtagged, but honestly, its up til the millionth time where I actually now believe that life is too short to waste it on being miserable.

 To start. whoa.

Throwing caution to the wind and just, do.

Because "You Only Live Once," it makes following rules even harder, for someone who
is okay with staying within the lines and I know what that feels like. Breaking or messing
up can feel like a felony, especially in a world where we have to be cautious to survive.

This saying somehow awakens the soul. Like, its telling it to "Wake up! It's YOUR life!"

So, with all the boundaries, rules, laws, the "or else" threats, one day it will come down to
that moment. The "I don't give a sh*t what you want, how about I do what I want?"
second.

Honestly, the heat from that kind of a moment starts small, silently screaming in your mind.
My friends, its the gift of gut-punching, aka intuition that is nudging you to "say it, come on, say it,
you know you want to." After doing the same thing for months, its time to change the routine, change the system, because something happened, and just "going for it" can be life-changing.

I've been the think-before-you-say-it kind of person ever since I entered my teens, and now that
I am an adult, that mentality creeps on me and prevents me from feeling free.

and I don't normally cuss, but dammit, I want to be free. For the past few years, I've felt trapped, unsure
where to take the next step on my journey. But now Drake solidifies this essence of independence that makes me want to go all out, and celebrate Me for once.  Its hard, to break from thinking too much, to literally letting go.

But I knew, in my gut, the nudging feeling was telling me that "It's my life, I have to live it for me," even though I have so many obligations and priorities pulling at me from left to right. To live life to its fullest
NOW. Not later.

For some, this isn't new, or for others, this concept just opened the flood gates.
I hope no matter what form YOLO is brought to your mind, that the waters lead you to
"paddling your own canoe."

Life gives you various things, lemons, paddles, a flat tire, whatever it may be, let your soul speak,
because its only crying out for your own good. Respect your intuition, its uniquely yours!

By the way, YOLO has inspired me to put my frugal self on hold and splurge on
the things that make me feel sexy, because I never knew how much I've shrugged that
part of me away. No wonder why I've been frowning!

Smiles and Power to "living it up for YOU"
