A To Do List

Dani Doucette
  1. Don’t try to be cute. If you try to be cute someone will catch you.
  2. Don’t try to stay still. Then you’ll fall over the very second you’ve found your balance.
  3. Don’t try to learn secrets. Because there really aren’t any secrets hiding from you, and learning is not a trial.
  4. Don’t take out the trash too soon, or else something furry will come and get it sooner than you need them to.
  5. Don’t make promises to go slower through your day. Making that promise is proof positive you intend to hurry up and break it.
  6. Don’t meditate with a full stomach. (Well, I thought I read that somewhere. Didn’t I? Or am I making things up now?)
  7. Don’t save up all those extra rubber bands in a ball. They’ll sit there growing and drying up in the back of the drawer. They’ll only find it when cleaning out your house.
  8. Don’t be desperate about looking for lost friends, because they’ve already given you exactly what they were meant to give you, or else you wouldn’t have lost them, silly.
  9. Don’t drink that third cup of coffee. Oh you know…the whole “too much of a good thing” thing.
  10. Don’t lose you keys again, or trip on the rug, or leave the lights on, or waste water, or fail to finish that book you started, or forget to floss, or take more than you can eat, or bite your nails.
  11. Don’t worry too much. You’ll see.
