The World Is A Beautiful Place, Now Shut Up And Enjoy It


You are not required to be a social person
You are not required to be happy


But why not?
Why not enjoy the blue of the sky, the green of the trees, the warm caress of the sun?
It's your life go live it.


Seventh Heaven, Paradise, the Garden of Eden
Yours for the making


Things, can and will be awesome
When you least expect it the sun will shine and flowers will blossom


There may come a time when you don't feel a consummate desire for the one you're with
And you'll want to move on
It'll be on you now to be the heartbreaker


That's just how it goes
You need to learn to let go...really let go



It happens you know, someone finds someone they perceive as better and dumps the other.
Everybody gets to feel embarrassed, gets to feel humiliated
That's just how it goes...learn to let it go.



Remember when you thought you were fat, ugly, stupid
And then discovered that you were none of those things


Can you remember when it felt like the worst of times
That cat curled up in your lap can't
And neither does the dog playing with that stick


There will be people you like who do not like you
And you will struggle to understand
Just let it go....really let it go


Get out there and find a karaoke bar
Sing
This is your life and it could be starting over every minute, day and night
You don't have to win every race to be a winner in this place
Living your life in fear is not living
Stop taking all that crap and start giving


Seven billion people on this rock but only one of you
Find a way to enjoy everything you do


Make the choices that you want to live with
Refuse to allow past issues or mistakes to define you
You can move past and beyond any and everything that is dragging you down


Free to live your life and be happy
Refuse to be miserable


It may cost you a few of your friends when you decide to be you but you'll never miss them


Try to be rational, try to be kind


Learn the truth about yourself.
What you really are, what you really like, what you really know
Learn to accept knowing the truth about yourself
Find others who comfortably accept the truth about yourself
There's no point in trying to force the people around you to accept the truth about yourself
Go out and find people that just simply are comfortable with that truth


It takes some serious brass to get to the point where you are truly who you are most comfortable being, and are truly living the life you actually want to live. Most people can't do it.


But you must, if you want to be happy.


So you've been wronged in the past, hey that's all part of the procees, accept it and move on.
So you've been wrong in the past, hey that's all part of the process, accept it and move on.


If you are not harming yourself, other people, or taking advantage of anyone
That truth will indeed set you free.


Do you need to be charming, funny and well dressed?
Do you need to be somebody you saw on TV or in a movie?


No, you don't. You need to be you.


Learn to let go...really let go.
