Play is the serious business of your life

Top 5 regrets people have on their deathbed: 
“I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.”
“I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.”
“I wish I had let myself be happier.”
“I wish I’d had the courage to express my true self.”
“I wish I’d lived a life true to my dreams instead of doing what others expected of me.”

So basically, that tells me people should play, laugh, and have more fun! Follow your dreams and your passions - you can't go wrong, after all, it's your life. Who but you, knows better, what your soul longs for? 

The best people will inspire and encourage you to do more of what makes you happy and fulfilled. If you have the great fortune of spending your life with someone who brings you joy and helps make your dreams come true, be grateful and appreciative every day.

The angry woman

I am the angry woman I'm bleeding white-hot rage My fury of tears will drown you You should all feel afraid.  My tongue is poised for lashing My feet are here to crush My lungs are filled with fire I cannot stop the rush.

The boy who was (never) good enough

I may be off-base But I think I recognize it This desire to give As a way to provide Yourself with a pleasing identity. A way to be loving A way to be loved Giving up your own needs  For the sake of harmony. Did you have a mother who was always sad? Were you the one to delight her? Did you face the pain of choosing a path That took you away or made you unkindly? Was your brother the asshole And you didn’t mind it Because it meant you could be the one To fix feelings all around you. And when you were older Did you pick girls that reminded You of the woman who was always demanding? And did you feel good  When you provided  All of the joy that wasn’t inside her? But when you messed up Were you the same disappointment? The boy who was (never) good enough But couldn’t stop striving. I hope one day you see That you’re worthy of love Without needing to give Or be perfect. Above all I hope you reme...
