Advance Warning

I saw this sign on my way to teach the other morning and it made me stop and take a picture. I love that we need advance warning of when we will have fun, as if it’s somehow detrimental to our health or such a low priority that it needs to be scheduled into the diary. Ridiculous! We have a right to have fun. Right here and right now.

Stop reading this and go do something fun for five minutes. It will wake you up, make you feel alive and connect with your creative spirit.

Where there’s no fun, there’s no creative.

Goodbye. I’m going out to play.
