Take The Good And The Bad And Go
Pixabey

Life is so scary because you have no idea what tomorrow may bring. Now just because life is scary doesn't mean it isn't great. Life is full of so many different ups and downs that you have to remember to take the good and the bad and go.

I'm sure you've heard this before but whenever life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Although lemons are bitter if you make lemonade with them you've made something good. So take the good and the bad & go. Whenever you fall off of your bike for the first time you instantly probably think that bike riding isn't for you but in order for you to see the beauty of it you have to be willing to take the good and the bad & go. That just goes to show that good can come from the bad.

When meeting new people in life you have to remember that every one isn't pure gold. So be willing to take the good and the bad & go. What frightens people most when taking the bad is the slight chance that they may fail. Failure is okay, look for the good and learn from the bad.

The biggest life lesson thus far that I've learned is to take the good and the bad & go. Go on a trip, go on a run, go on that date, or even go take a nap. Go do what you want to do (unless your mom says no) in life, because you only get one! Live life to the fullest and watch yourself grow.

In order to grow you have to give yourself the room to grow. Everyone grows at a different point in life so don't be so quick to rush your time, it'll come. The journey is sweet so find time to enjoy it. Don't spend all of your time stressing about things that you have no control over but investing your time in things that make you happy. Being happy is a vital part of life so BE HAPPY!

Just think for a second, when was the last time that you took the good and the bad? Did you go? Did the bad scare you? Did it encourage you to find the good? Only you can answer those questions. Let the answers determine your next move in life whether it be small or big. So I encourage you; take the good and the bad & go!

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
