The Kindness of a Reminder

“My wife, whenever I’d go off to work and I’d be kind of anxious, she’ll say, ‘Remember, have fun.’  Oh, I forgot, thanks for the reminder.  Because sometimes we do forget.  We take it all too seriously and there’s a lot of joy to be had wherever you are.”
  - Jeff Bridges

The other day I was going somewhere that I didn’t particularly want to go – only because I preferred to stay home.  When I told one of my friends where I was going, she said, “Have fun!”  I thanked her for the reminder and realized that what I was doing should be and would probably be fun – if I would just let it be.
