Fun, Fun, Fun!!

Imagine that it's a Thursday night. You know you've worked really hard all week, and are going to slog it through one last workday before you come home exhausted on Friday night - maybe just looking forward to that new release DVD and your soft bed.

Of course, come Saturday, we all do laundry, catch up on the (depressing) news, pay our bills, ponder our personal finances, and wonder with friends over a morning coffee whether we're doing the right thing.

I wonder why we don't feel like we deserve to prioritize having fun. When we were kids, surely our entire lives were filled with mischievous plans to soak our neighbor with water balloons, or to make sure our parents arranged a play date so we could play tag or have a tea party.

When did we get so . . . serious??!

Since we have to deal with the real life business of getting older and becoming responsible, surely we need to balance life out with a few laughs and moments of freedom - if only to keep our sanity!! It helps us manage our inevitable stress, and besides, we deserve it.

What rejuvenates you? What makes you feel free again? What do you do to have fun - true, unabashed, laugh-out-loud fun? And how can you make that a regular occurrence in your life?
