For years I had a framed card up in my house, that said “Life’s too mysterious, don’t take it serious.” I thought it was a great way to approach life.

Most of the time.

“Take it easy” strikes me the same way. Sometimes we take ourselves too seriously and get bent out of shape over meaningless things.

It’s nice to remind ourselves now and then to step back and just relax. Because in the end, very little of what we’re upset about will matter.
