Hatched

"Decisions made without premeditation often lead to unforgettable experiences of a lifetime."

I read that quote in a Daily OM email sent to me recently.  Soon after, a friend of mine dragged me to watch the new Mama Mia movie -- which seemed to have the same message (and, was an unexpectedly awesome viewing experience. :) ).

Here are a few of my favorite un-premeditated decisions (in no particular order):
  • Moving into the ghettos Oakland 
  • Going to Costa Rica and Australia 
  • Taking a surfing lesson
  • Adopting The Luscious Frankie J
  • Signing up for aerial classes
  • Producing the first warehouse show
  • Joining a soccer team
  • Chasing the moon 

"It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad." - C. S. Lewis
