Play your own tune...

People crack me up.  Was just watching the morning news and looking at the two news anchors.  Both had on glasses, you know the ones we used to call coke bottles back in the day.  Thick, dark frames, kinda nerdy...yeah those.  Just when did these things come back in vogue?  Especially since so many people used to run from these things, and now they're cool?  Wow.

 This is yet another example of how so many of us allow the media and people on TV, in the movies, etc...dictate to us what is considered "in" or "cool."  But, I say play your own tune, set your own pace and yes be prepared to not be Miss, Ms., Mrs. or Mr. popular.  There is something to be said about individual style.  In fact, is it just me or do you too observe that so many people in their quest to be different look just like everyone else.  Actually, this phenomenon starts back in Junior High School and slowly, meticulously perpetuates ever so forward.

So I say dare to be different and take the road less traveled.  Sure it might be lonely at times, but at least you'll be you.  Plus, you might turn around and see you have a few folks joining you.

Peace!
