I am finally at a point in my life where I have some time to enjoy myself but I've come to the sad realization that I don't know how to have fun.
I've always worked really hard. I didn't have a childhood... before I turned 6 years-old, I spent five hours every Saturday mowing and trimming my parent's one-acre lawn, Sundays were spent mopping and waxing floors and cleaning bathrooms. Starting at 7 years old, I also made the family dinners every weekday evening and did the clean-up before bed. I got my first paying job at 12 and worked to put myself through university twice, for two degrees.
It has never stopped. In my spare time, I find work to do.
You know the kind of fun I mean... where you are excited about it, really looking forward to it. Argh. I don't think I know how to do that. Was I supposed to learn that when I was a kid?
I'm very interested to know how do you have fun. All ideas are welcomed!
