To be stupid, selfish, and have good health are three requirements for happiness, though if stupidity is lacking, all is lost.” - Gustave Flaubert

Feel Good Good Friday: The Easter Bunny
Bunny rabbits wiggle,
So much they make me giggle.
They wiggle their ears
They wiggle their nose
The tail on their rear
Wiggles too, I suppose.
And just when I say “Stop wiggling, stop!”
They wiggle all over, and take a big hop!

Thought of the Christmas Day: Get Your Grinch On
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
“And the Grinch, with his Grinch-feet ice cold in the snow, stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so? It came without ribbons. It came without tags. It came without packages, boxes or bags. And he puzzled and puzzled ’till his puzzler was sore. Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before. What if Christmas, he thought, doesn’t come from a store. What if Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.”
~Dr Seuss

Top Ten: Childish Things We Probably Should Have Grown Out Of
MADE YOU LOOK… MADE YOU STARE… MADE YOU LOSE YOUR UNDERWEAR!
Yes, I know. Shockingly immature. Takes you back to childhood days, all those years ago, when silliness and teasing were socially acceptable. The problem is, we don’t seem to have outgrown our childish habits. We still enjoy giggling at our friends’ expense, we still cry with laughter when someone falls flat on their face. Yes, we’re technically adults, we might have jobs, partners, and overdrafts but is age synonymous with seriousness? I’d like to think not.
Don’t get a grip. Let go. Laugh. Embrace your silliness and act half your age. Or better, a quarter of your age. What are you waiting for? Do something silly.
CHILDISH THINGS WE PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE GROWN OUT OF…
1. Jumping on the bed. Sofa. A relative. Anything squishy really.
2. Sudden urges to do something naughty. Like knocking over that beautiful sandcastle. Or blowing out your sister’s birthday candles.
3. Pathetic comebacks.
4. Hiding away and screaming BOO at your friend who proceeds to have a heart attack. Good one.
5. Toilet humour. Enough said.
6. SHOTGUN!
7. Poking fun at would-be couples with silly rhymes. “…sitting in a tree…”
8. Winding someone up who needs to remember a specific number by shouting out random numbers at the top of your lungs.
9. The giggles. Especially in silent spaces. The library. Shhhhh.
10. Sulking. Especially when you’re losing at Monopoly.
Shout out to Amina and Hasan Ispahani who let loose their inner child to inspire the content of this post. Now go have fun. That’s an order.
