I was talking to some friends, who where talking about there life plans, like, where there going to be in a few years time, and how they got to where they are now, so obviously it got me thinking....
" Yikes" life plan, i dont even have a "day" plan, let alone a "Life" plan..
I have met very few people who have a plan for their lives. Most are spectators, Taking each and every day as it comes. They may plan their careers, the building of a new home, or even a holiday,
But life!?......
I am a Random Person who has a Random life.
I go to the grocery store without a list, pick up all sorts of things i thought i needed but didn't,
I visit Friends/family at random times, by either pulling up in there driveway, or calling to say i'm on my way.
leave the house at any random time, because i realized there was something that i had to do,
i will call you up with 5 minutes notice to catch up over coffee at some random coffee shop.
I can't count on my life plan as i dont have one.
I take each day as it comes..
I am that Person who has come to terms with the fact that it is probably not okay to wash my hair every three days, and stay in my Pajamas all day, whilst sitting in front of my computer, hair untouched, no make up applied and of course coffee in hand.
I am that person who wants to be involved in everything.
i want to know what when and where the happening are, Not saying i'm going to be there, but i'd like to know, all the same..
I am that person who has a million thoughts running through my head. Thoughts about life, thoughts about where in this wonderful world i might be in another 20+ years, what will i be doing then, what will i have achieved by then, what would my children have achieved by then, will i have Grandchildren
by then (sure hope so)
by then (sure hope so)
so so so many thoughts/questions about life, but yet, No Life Plan..
i had a plan once...
It was a plan that involves nothing of what i do or have now!
a story for another day!
So tell me this,
How do we Create a life plan, if we dont know what the future holds for us?
Are we wrong not to have a life plan?
"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment." -- Buddha

Awesome..
Thank you so much!
At least if you don't have a plan, you won't be worried if it doesn't go accordingly?
lol I like your thining Jules.
If not a life plan due to the unpredictable nature of the journey, at least a set of goals, desires, wishes, to see through.
I just wrote my own post about bucketlists, but the comment form won't let me link it =/
