Life's Little Macaroons !

                                                        So here we are 29th January and I expect all those new year resolutions have made their way effortlessly out the window . Not that I'm a pessimist , no in fact I would say realist is how I'd best describe myself . I understand with all the best of intentions , resolutions were sworn upon , they were how your lives were gonna change for the best in 2015 . What we never factor in though is the pleasure factor . This is the one thing that can destroy the best of intentions .
                                                        Indulgence can be enjoyable if a little control is exercised , and things can remain the same without getting out of control . But here we are in the middle of winter and how is one supposed to get through without a little indulgence . Without it days can appear very boring and very long . You sit down and watch a movie , and whats watching a movie without goodies like ? Its like going on holiday and not tasting the local cuisine . Its like going to bed and not snuggling up . Its like having a drink and not being able to smoke ! (If you happen to be a smoker).
                                                       So instead of beating yourself up after reading all those leaflets on what you should and shouldn't eat , after feeling guilty that you've just savaged that bag of chocolates , after sitting down and relaxing instead of going out for that promised and needed walk , just give yourself a break . Take things slowly , we were not meant to speed through life never touching pleasure or always being guilty over life's little macaroons

. No we were meant to enjoy life , in whatever way we feel makes it positive for us . When you see your next door neighbour flying out the door with his special watch on to time himself , take a little pleasure in knowing you will never hurt your body that way . You will never expose your being human , for an agenda that someone else says you must abide by .
                                                       Life is meant to be enjoyed , to be pleasing , to be an experience to die for , which in the end we'll all do anyway . But how when you look back at your life , can you say with all honesty , " That was a Blast " and wouldn't have done it any other way . Or will you have so many regrets about denying yourself the niceties in life ? I know which of the two I'll have been classified in . Time is fleeting , its really an illusion , that only pictures can truly capture . You can never truly rely on your memory for assurance , because being human you tend to forget things and some things are just too important to forget .Take it easy on yourself , wherever you're going you're gonna get there if that's where you're meant to be !
