I'm definitely in the "taking things not so seriously" camp now. I have been accused of being "too serious," a "fun hater," etc. Sometimes people ask me if I constantly worry about my son, who is in the military. When I say no, that it's not productive to do so, for myself or for him, they look astounded. I want to say, besides the fact that he is doing what he wants to do, I am too busy riding, running, etc. and generally having fun to focus on what "could" happen.
