Be a Kid Again
Many people take themselves way too seriously. When was the last time you did something really silly? Or something most grown-ups don’t do, without caring whether someone raised an eyebrow or two?
Be a kid again
- Do a cartwheel.
- Sing into your hairbrush.
- Walk barefoot in wet grass.
- Play a song you like really loud, over and over.
- Dot all your “i”s with smiley faces.
- Read the funnies. Throw the rest of the paper away.
- Dunk your cookies.
- Play a game where you make up the rules as you go along.
- Step carefully over sidewalk cracks.
- Change into some play clothes.
- Try to get someone to trade you a better sandwich.
- Eat ice cream for breakfast.
- Kiss a frog, just in case.
- Blow the wrapper off a straw.
- Have someone read you a story.
- Find some pretty stones and save them.
- Wear your favorite shirt with you favorite pants even if they don’t match.
- Take a running jump over a big puddle.
- Get someone to buy you something you really don’t need.
- Hide your vegetables under your napkin.
- Stay up past your bedtime.
- Eat dessert first.
- Fuss a little, then take a nap.
- Wear red gym shoes.
- Put way too much sugar on your cereal.
- Make cool screeching noises every time you turn a corner.
- Giggle a lot for no reason.
- Give yourself a gold star for everything you do today.

Hello would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re working with? I’m going to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!
Hi Syble,
I’m using WordPress (first the shared blog platform at wordpress.com, then self-hosted with wordpress.org). Haven’t used BlogEngine, B2evolution or Drupal. Basically all bloggers I know use WordPress – from what I’ve read, heard and experienced WP is unbeatable in all aspects that matter. For hosting I recommend DreamHost.
The design is all thanks to http://www.wpzoom.com/themes/tribune/ and the support at WPZOOM. They have many beautiful themes!
