Why not?
/We watched this movie last weekend. There is a reoccurring line in the movie that goes like this...
Why not? I love that. Just, why not? Sometimes we over think things. Indecision drives me insane. I cannot stand that "rainbow spinning wheel" that comes up on the screen on my mac when it is thinking (or frozen). There are lots of people who get stuck in that mode too. I am not one of them. It's probably true that they act as a good balance to all of us out there who want to fly by the seat of our pants, but sometimes it just feels like a maddening bottleneck to spontaneity waiting for them to catch up. Here are some rash decisions I'd like to make:
buy this necklace? wear this necklace? why not?
live in this van (or heck, maybe even a cardboard box) on that beach. why not?
build this in the back yard? why not?
eat strawberries like this from now on? why not?
slurp these popsicles (drowning in champagne) every other day this summer? why not?
eat dinner on this dock? jump in the water and leave my bathing suit on this dock? why not?
order this duvet from west elm? why not? (I already did this one...it came last week. love!)
paint pillowcases like this to match? why not?
buy plane tickets and travel back east, or overseas, or anywhere- and wear this? why not?
Let's just do it all. Why not?
