Something Stupid.

Have you ever done something stupid ? Like really really stupid? Oh, who am I kidding! Of course you have. Everybody at some point in their lives have done something stupid. Stupidity sometimes is inevitable. It can surprise you, as well as the people around you because...well, its stupidity. But just because you do something stupid, doesn't mean that you should be judged and labelled a stupid dumb individual. Because believe me, even geniuses at times tend to make GENI-ASSES of themselves.
Stupid decisions basically come from the need to be impulsive. Sure, impulsive decisions sometimes are good. It makes you feel bad ass, and everyone needs a little bad ass-ness in their lives. Certain impulsive decisions have a good effect. Like randomly landing up at your best friends house and surprising her on a lazy day. But the other times, it just leads to a number of chaotic situations, which end up making you look stupid. Because most of the time you're not thinking of the repercussions of your impulsiveness. You're in the moment, and you just want to do it. Its that stubborn urge that you WANT to fulfill. 
However, even though these impulsive decisions make you look stupid, they also make you laugh. They make you think you're crazy and sometimes that's just what you need. I myself, am a pretty impulsive person and that has got me into A LOT of trouble and a number of embarrassing moments in the past. Some of the times, I've turned my instincts down, but the rest of the times, I've very SMARTLY landed myself in a STUPID situation. (Did you see what I did there?) But the thing is, I'm not ashamed. Sure, there are times when I look back and want to hit myself in the face...with a chair...but it doesn't change the fact that I dont regret it. I let my instincts take over and took a ride on the crazy train. So what. It was experiences and parts of what I would someday call the best days of my life. 
So, is it good to do stupid things or make impulsive decisions? Not really, no. But its not bad either. After all, you do need to have a balance between normal and crazy. So do stupid things. Put yourself in crazy situations. Make those prank calls and ask them if their refrigerators are running. Show up uninvited and crash a party...well actually, make sure its some one you know. You dont want to land up in jail and tell your children about that 10 years down the line. Catch a wrong train or bus, get lost in the middle of nowhere. It may embarrass you to a point where you wish the earth would open up and swallow you whole, but 5 years from now, you could look back and think....Man, I did some stupid shit. And it will definitely tickle the funny bone in you. Cause at the end of the day, you wont get these years back. And then when the time comes, face your responsibilities, with maturity and sophistication. And BELIEVE that you'll do a great job and be a remarkable human being. Because you had the best childhood or teen-hood -or whatever you'd like to call it- that you could ever ask for or ever imagine.
So go all out, and dont regret the stupid decisions. Because everyone at some point in their lives have done something stupid.
