Spontaneity

I will confess I am generally a hypocrite when it comes to being fearless or spontaneous. But it is definitely something I crave. An example of this is not too long ago I was at a college event where, keep in mind it was socially acceptable and encouraged, you would walk up to a stranger and kiss them at midnight. And no it was not New Year's Eve. I told my friends I wasn't nervous at all. But when it came time to pick a handsome stranger, I almost chickened out. Key word: almost. I was eventually able to able to approach him and complete the fun ritual show our school spirit. 

I am not enouraging anyone to go out and start kissing random people, that is not the point. Im talking about doing things that people don't normally do. Start a conversation with someone on the train or in the hallway. If you think they are attractive then that's definitely an added bonus. 

More importantly put down your electronics and go out of your way for some good old interaction.  

Starting today, I am going to try to keep a little notebook of the different things and people I meet that I wouldn't normally. Consider it a small social experiment.
