People always say “I need a life” or “Life sucks”. We simply don’t know all that we have. We take everything for granted. What they don’t understand is that everything is a gift. Waking up in the morning, getting coffee, having friends, me sitting in a car whilst writing this… Everything is a gift – even if you don’t realise it. It’s all there! People just don’t know how to see it and make it work.

Now, I’m not one of those people going on and on about how special life is, because it is annoying, but life is a gift that must be cherished. It mustn’t be wasted on unnecessary things like following Kanye West or any of the Kardashians for that matter. Having interests are good, but being ‘interested’ in things just because it’s the ‘in’ thing, isn’t a real interest. It’s called, ‘trying to be cool’.

If you really want to be cool, just be yourself. Whether you are a rugby player, doctor, actor or a colossal nerd! Just be yourself. People appreciate it when you are yourself. They get to meet the real you and understand you. Trying to be someone else is just a waste of time and quite possibly, money

Now go out. Live, love and most importantly, have fun!
