What-The-Heck Moments
The importance of What-The-Heck-Moments:
There are times in life where you just have to say “What the Heck”. Or “Who Cares”. Or just “&*#@*()^ it”. Just to feel the freedom. Just to feel your life isn’t all laid out according to certain patterns and rules determined by others.
There are times when you just need to send the mail, jump on/off that bus, make the call, put yourself out there. If you don’t you probably won’t get hurt. On the other hand, if you don’t, you will never, truly, feel you have lived.
We can’t always understand why someone else says or does what they do. We can’t always measure the best thing to do, at work or at play. And even if we’re doing what we’re “supposed” to do, according to all the rule books, if it’s not living, not connecting with our inner fire, what’s it worth really?
Have you never done something you were expressly told isn’t wise, to find it brought you the most fun or value you’ve had in ages? Have you never decided that it doesn’t matter what the other person wants, you know how it should be…the options are getting arrested for stalking or shedding light into dark corners.
So What The Heck – I’m posting this!
I have ‘what the heck’ moments all the time. I think when you’re younger you’re always concerned with what everyone else is doing or thinking – but then as you get older and wiser, and life starts passing by, you say – to h— with it, and just do things. Sometimes you send the letter, make the gesture, do the crazy psycho thing, because if you don’t, you will never feel like you fought for an opportunity. So we put our ego on the line and don’t care if we look foolish.
