A friend was asking when you gave up on reading a bad book, or did you struggle on until the end. Someone replied: Life's too short to finish boring books.
Which got me thinking, what else is life to short to do?
Here's what came back:
Life's too short to do dry July. (That says more about my friends than anything else!)
Life's too short to fear failure.
Life's too short to eat low fat dairy products!
Life's too short not to live everyday like it's your last.
Life's too short to stop shining.
Life's too short to do a thing you hate, out of a sense of duty and no other redeeming feature.
And me, I just think Life is too short.
How would you finish the sentence?

ReplyDeleteLike you, I just think life is too short. Love this post!
ReplyDeleteLife's too short to always put others before yourself. Life's too short to put dreams aside till later. Life's too short to pretend to be what you think others want you to be. I could go on and on! ;-)
ReplyDeleteLife is too short to waste time worrying about things you can't change.
ReplyDeleteLife is too short to keep putting things off ... I should actually try living by that. Some great ones to remember.
ReplyDeleteLife's too short to quit sugar, worry about what others think of you, compare yourself to others. I'm pretty good with the first one and still working on the other two, sadly.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely on the boring book!
ReplyDeleteLife too short, jump in puddles with your kids!
Yep I give a book 100 pages... Then dump if I hate it. Life is too short to diet and be hungry all the time
ReplyDeleteI have thinking a lot lately in this frame of mind. Life is indeed too short for dry July. Life is too short to just think about doing. Just do!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great prompt Lydia. Life is too short so go do what you want to do instead of worrying what others will think. Have a great week and thanks for linking up at #MLSTL.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually thinking about doing Dry July or, rather, Mostly Dry July or Dryer Than Usual July. And yes, life is too short to finish boring books.
ReplyDeleteDrier than usual is okay....Dry? Nah!
DeleteLife is too short to deal with mean people. #MLSTL
ReplyDeleteYep! Absolutely!
DeleteLife's too short to suck up a miserable job! And that's why I quit and why I'm revelling in this time of peace and serenity!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up with us at MLSTL and I've shared on my SM :)
GO YOU!!!!
DeleteI agree Lydia, life's too short to continue to read a bad book or one you're not enjoying - this doesn't happen to me very often but it did this week. #mlstl
ReplyDeleteLife is too short not to Laugh every day.
ReplyDeleteLife is too short so explore and make every day a great one. #MLSTL
ReplyDeleteOh dear... the first thing that came to my mind was "life is too short to drink bad wine". But I love all the ideas in the comments! Visiting from #MLSTL.
ReplyDeleteLife is too short to stay at a job you hate. Life is too short to worry about other people's opinions of you. Life is too short to put off the things you really want to do. Thanks for the exercise. #MLSTL
ReplyDeleteAfter I gave myself an uppercut for noticing the spelling of 'to' in the title, I guess life is TOO short TO notice things like this!
