Optional

So much that I'm doing in life is optional.  What a luxury this is.

I do some mandatory things.  Laundry, dishes, vacuuming, cooking...

But all these other things that I "omg, have to do," they're optional!  I've created all this work for myself!!  I've picked what I want to do with my time, and if I use time wisely, I can do this all eventually.  What.  A.  Luxury.  I don't have to work all the time, without a choice, to keep my house, feed myself, feed others, etc.  I won't think of complaining about or freaking out about my to-do's again, especially during summer vacation, when I can sit around the house all day if I wanted to.  I'll just do everything with gratitude!
