I have a ridiculous knack for being an extremely observant person. My friends think I've missed my calling entirely, that I should have been a PI or taken Ester's place on "Girl Code". Let's face it, the bitch is not funny. Either way, I'm just fine sitting where I'm at.
For the past few months I've realized I should cut back on planning. I'm a serious, SERIOUS, planner and I'm bored with it. Playing things by ear is so much more entertaining, and the fact that I'm super self reliant helps a lot too. That means I'm not at the mercy of anyone else. I'm just really fascinated with how people function. The human body is so crazy to me. I'm 100% convinced that it would take lifetimes to understand it fully, and when you do understand it you'll lost likely spontaneously combust.
I'm no expert by any stretch, but I'm starting to figure out what makes me happy. I've taken comfort and a lot of leisure in just living my life daily. If I can do one thing that's really fun each day, one thing that is semi educational, one thing that is healthy, I'll truly be a golden girl. John Lennon said that life is what happens while you're busy planning. He's absolutely right. Don't get me wrong, I'm not turning into a hippy. I'd be an AWFUL hippy, I fucking detest patchouli. However there is some serious truth to his words.
I've spent the last few months observing and analyzing people around me. What makes them tick, what sets them off, what makes them happy and what doesn't. I could honestly care less about how it pertains to them, as much as how much I've learned from observing them. Sorry everyone, I'm not trying to be a cold hard bitch. My goal is just to simplify things. Let go of things that honestly serve no purpose in my life, except just for pure torment and misery.
You can learn a great deal from people watching. You can learn even MORE by observing them. I may be The Great Mouse Detective, but I promise you it's not just for the sake of wearing a really great trench coat!
