I noticed my coworker’s shoes were made out of fabric printed with cartoon-style dogs. “Cute shoes!” I commented. Her response was, “If I have to wear something, I’m gonna make it fun.” (I later learned she does not like the feeling of her feet being encased and restricted.)
I like the philosophy of her quote, expanded to include anything in life: “If I’m gonna do something, I’m gonna make it fun.” Or simply, “Make it fun!” I think a little lightheartedness exponentially elevates the soul.
