Things You Find Out By Accident

by Zoey @ Good Googs on November 25, 2009

It’s funny the things you find out about yourself seemingly after the fact. I was at a wedding on the weekend and it was there that I realised I am not a serious person. I always thought of myself that way. But I am not serious and generally, I find people who are serious slightly exhausting and slightly humourless.

Looking back

And really, if you can’t laugh, what’s the point?

This is what happens when you don’t spend a whole lot of time on introspection. Or in my case, you do, but you kind of suck at it. You wake up one day, you’re 31 and you don’t even vaguely resemble the person you had in your head. It’s like that thing in the Matrix where their residual image of how they look is different to how they look in real life.

I prefer to admire the truly passionate from afar. That way when I poke fun at everything they don’t notice. The great benefit of not being serious? No one has to take me seriously. What a relief.
