Plans are made to fail!!


I actually wrote this post a while ago already but after going for my last Stand up paddle session yesterday I thought about this post and that I really want to share it with you. I had a great time again with my friend Aci who was almost blown out into the wide ocean!!! But we made it back safe and laughed a lot again. I expected a fun, no drama, no wind, a lot of dolphins, whales and seals surf session but That's not what happened. That's why I think this post fits great. It s about Plans that never turn out the way you plan them but that's what makes them exciting!!

"What an awesome day!
And not even close to what I had planed.
But like I already said... Plans are made to fail. Since I am in America I experience over and over again, that every time I plan something I end up being upset because the plan did not work out the way I wanted it to be. Or at least that how I usually reacted. Now I m not disappointed anymore I go with the flow and see what else is there to do.
For example this weekend. My PLAN for Saturday was--> Play Volleyball in the morning, go home get ready and eat, drive to a shopping mall in Irvine and after that go to Laguna and spend the Weekend with Stevie and Jason. What happened... hmmm except for ending up at Stevie's and Jason's place NOTHING!! Like I said my plan totally failed! But still I made the best out of it and I experienced things that I would have missed out on otherwise. But lets get back to the beginning. Sooooo I woke up not feeling good so I had to cancel on Volleyball. When I got up i had no clue what else to do but I felt like I need to be active somehow. So I decided to go to a indoor rock climbing center. FAIL again... Due to the fact that I don't have a navigation system I could not find the address of the center. So I called my mechanic if he can check on my car before I sell it, to make sure everything is fine. I dropped my car off and went to the beach for a run! Like I said I needed to do something active. While running around there I saw that the Ocean was very very very calm that day. So I went back up to my mechanic and after he told me that he still needs the car for another 30 minutes I went to the Stand Up Paddle shop and rented a Paddle-board. Best Idea ever. I did not even change into swim gear it was kinda weird standing on the board with my normal clothes. But it was nice an cosy in my pullover. Soooo I paddled around for a while watching some seals swimming around, jumping out of the water and just enjoying the day. It gave me a huge smile on my face. I really like watching them they are so huge but so sweet. So I paddled a little further out until at one point I almost fell from my board cause i was sooooo shocked about what I saw. Two grey wales came out of the water maybe 10 yards away from me. Wow Shock... Adrenalin... but I could not stop smiling for the rest of the day! Just beautiful! Scary huge but beautiful! So if I would have done what I planed I would have probably missed out on that experience. It's crazy but every time I just go step by step, from one situation to another and act spontaneously the best things always happen to me. Doesn't matter what. A spontaneous, fun trip to Vegas, a wet but fun whale watching trip, a spontaneous surf-session seeing dolphins doesn't matter what I always had a blast!!
So Like I said in the beginning PLANS ARE MADE TO FAIL.. and if they do ... so what life still goes on and sometimes even better than you ever thought it could be!! YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE Make the best out of it!! Instead of being angry or pissed just enjoy whatever else comes up. Your wishing heart knows where to go just trust that you will do the right things!!" Pin It Now!
