wise words, big smiles

so it started this morning with someone telling me a saying of 'if you don't stress about it, you die; if you stress about it, you die anyway" so rather just not stress and enjoy the way through it all. good words.
i just bumped into an old varsity friend, who after 3 years, has come back to finish off her degree. she's chosen to do Italian as her major, as she left it far more worth her while to follow things that she loved and enjoyed rather than doing a shit course, purely because there may be better options of employment or so on afterwards. she was saying that there's an 83 year old guy in her Italian class, someone who saw Mussolini dead, was an architecture professor, been married about 7 times, was an amazing Shakespearean actor, and so on, and felt that he wanted to extend his knowledge of languages, hence the Italian. we got on to talking about age, life, debt and so on...and it fitted right into many conversations, debates and thoughts that have come this year from own experience, friends and even things like the secret, about if you want to do it, just go and do it, the universe seems to have this amazing ability to sort things out for you along the way. fuck worry about debt, and expectations, and stuck in rut and all that stuff; over time it all works out and balances itself in time. live large, and the world will open to give it back, and make sure that some how you hand back on your feet again. i like the idea, and it seems to have worked so far, so carry on, dear universe, carry on. it made me smile. and realise the world is mine.
