Think Free

I come from a land far far away it was called high school.  When I went to high it was cool to wear a polo under your dress shirt, to have a mullet and if you were a girl nothing was better than super high eighties hair.  strange language " gag me with a spoon".  our music, any where from Christopher Cross to Def Leopard. Some may say I pushed the boundaries of strangeness when I was in high school and they may be correct, but it helped me to become who I am today and let me be a free thinker.  I have a thirteen year old daughter who thinks it completely fashionable along with her friends to wear glasses that are non prescription not just single colored but blue and white zebra stripped.  Oh i almost forgot the Tutu, purple jeans, yellow Tutu, pink shirt, custom made florescent converse high tops and socks that never match.  The one thing I think we all need to do is let our kids be those free thinkers.  As you grow up people tell you, go to college, get married,have some kids and provide for your family don't screw around and don't have any fun.  look at where it has gotten us, we have fallen behind other countries in education.  The only thing we export now it seems our jobs.  We've stopped being creative, we think when you go to work it's only about being serious.  Why is that all of the best ideas we came up with as kids ( maybe not all ) were from being free thinkers.  Live outside the box not in the box.  When we go to work goofing off is not the option but  we should be able to have fun in the form of free thinking be creative in all that we do.  My close personal friend Napoleon said " live free or die" I think it should have been "free think or we all die"
