What If?

What if you counted to ten before you replied to that email

What if you meant it when you say “I’m sorry.”

What if you bought a stranger coffee and didn’t tell a soul about it

What if you tried to learn a new language

What if you read a book this weekend

What if you meditated for just 6 minutes

What if you ran before the sun came up

What if you watched the sunset 4 times a year

What if you danced in the rain instead of bitching about being wet

What if you made a meal for someone close to you

What if you quit today

What if you started a new adventure

What if you just started driving

What if you asked her out

What if she said yes

What if you tried the fish

What if you ran for office

What if you asked for seconds

What if you started something without permission

What if you let the record play

What if you lit candles for no reason

What if you spent a day watching the grass grow

What if you counted the stars

What if you just said yes

What if you put your phone away

What if you took a nap

What if you got a massage

What if you caught a movie on a Tuesday afternoon

What if you lived more real life

What if you consumed less digital life

What if you listened and didn’t speak

What if you gave hugs

What if you took a moment to make your own list of things you would do if there were no boundaries to tell you why you couldn’t. What would that look like?
