Animals

A rhino I drew

We live in a world where people like unique things. Some interests might seem weird, but to that person, it fits them. I saw an article about a lady who only wears green. Her house decor was all green, too. To me, that's different. Maybe even a little weird-sounding. Green makes her happy, so she surrounds herself with it. I guess I can't argue with that.

One thing I like, mostly because it makes me laugh, is animals that are dressed in human clothes, or even just wearing glasses. It may sound unusual, but I enjoy it. I just laugh whenever I see it around. I like the oddness of it. Something that doesn't make sense at all. It makes me happy.

While I'm not going to start decorating my entire house with animals in clothes, you'll occasionally see it pop up somewhere in my home or wardrobe. Last year, I was looking for Halloween decor, and I came across a new form of this. Ghosts in people's situations. It cracked me up! I bought a picture of a ghost in a bathtub taking a bubble bath, which went up in one bathroom, and another picture of a ghost sitting on a toilet for the other bathroom. How is that not just funny!? Every time I walked into those rooms, it would make me smile.

Maybe I'm making myself sound like a weird person, but I'm embracing it. Back when I was a teenager, I was careful to hide anything about myself that another teenager would find weird. I guess that is what teenagers do. Now that I'm almost 40, I'm going to embrace the parts of life that make me happy and not be so concerned about what other people think about it. 



I don't think I'm the only one out there who likes animals and ghosts dressed up like people, because I keep coming across it. It's a thing. Maybe in life, we need to find that random thing that makes us a little happier. Something a little different, and just embrace what it is and how it enhances our lives, even just by a little tiny bit.  While none of this has much of an impact on my life overall, it does bring a smile to my face and a moment to not take life so seriously.
