Don’t worry be happy

The hell we doing people?

Life is too short to not do as you please,

Life is too short to care about opinions of others

Life is too short to be curious on why someone doesn’t like you,

Why does it actually matter?

They don’t care or like you, so why are you putting so much energy into changing their mind? What does that even accomplish?

You have a list of people you don’t like or care for, you don’t put the same energy into changing your mind on those people.

What are we doing here?

If someone doesn’t want you in their life let them go. Move on.

We care too much about the newest fad- trends,

Why?

What does actually do for your life? Will it improve you? Better quality of life?

You already know your style, tastes, likes- why you chasing what others are into?

You’re not alive long enough to care about these things,

You have shit to accomplish in your own timeline before death comes knocking.

Death will come knocking and when he does will you feel finished with living?

That’s too bad, Death doesn’t care. It’s time to go.

When will you wake up and realize you need to live for you and no one else.

Live your life to the fullest before it’s too late.

You are beautiful.

No one is going to remember you anyways, so why not live the way you actually want to live?
