Letting Your Hair Down



To be yourself is a wonderful fortune. To be completely relaxed and uninhibited around others is not just fun, it’s a compliment to those surrounding you. It tells them ‘thanks’ for accepting me just as I am. 
I can joke, speak my mind, belly laugh, eat, sing and dance without restrictions and judgment. With the closest of friends and family, this can be commonplace. BUT…do you do this in public?

There are some free spirits in this world that can behave with wild abandon in public. Isn’t it nice that they are that comfortable not just in the skin that they are in, but in their surroundings as well. Again, it’s a compliment to the people, time, place and space that they are sharing the moment with. Someone may look and think that they are on a fun vacation or special occasion…something concocted…a singular moment. It could just be their journey through life. Maybe they celebrate every day this way…like they’re part of the parade instead of watching one pass by.

I still believe that fun and laughter is contagious. Sharing it with those surrounding you is a wonderful gift…whether you know them personally or not!



The link below is from the Ellen DeGeneres Show. Before the show begins, the audience is invited to dance. The videos of this participation are available on her website. The most recent is of sisters having what looks like the time of their lives. They were a big hit to Ellen and the audience; strangers now friends, new friends to internet celebrities! Fun spirits for the moment. You go girls!


Enjoy!
