This is one of my favorite pieces of wisdom to share with all my young friendsβand honestly, with everyone I know: Be Crazy, Not Stupid!
What I mean by this is live a wild, adventurous life. Take risks, have fun, push your limits, be a little rebelliousβjust be crazy! For me, crazy is a compliment; itβs a good thing. Iβve lived that crazy life, and Iβve got the photos to prove it.
But “Not Stupid” is key. Crazy is fun; stupid is harmful. Let me give you an exampleβ¦ Crazy is going to a party at your best friend’s house, where thereβs booze and drugs. You have a blast, get a little wild, and enjoy every minute. Stupid, however, is getting into your car afterward and driving home. Another example? Crazy is listening to the advice of friends and family. Stupid is ignoring their wisdom altogether.
Thereβs a fine line between the two, but trust me, that line exists. Iβve lived crazy for most of my life, and Iβve only done stupid a few times. Iβm not proud of those moments, but Iβm lucky nothing bad came of them. I learned from those mistakes and never made them again.
So, please⦠Be Crazy, NOT Stupid!
