Are You Experienced?

Brag about a new bathroom or boast that you have yet another new BMW and it will only confirm that even if you have piles of cash it isn’t buying you happiness just a heap of stuff.

Research has revealed that to get a grin like a Cheshire cat (You seen any cat smile? No, me neither) you have to stop the shopping and grab life by the goolies.

C’mon what would you rather be doing, staring at your snazzy new telly that you can’t even work out how to work or slide screaming over a waterfall in a stunning landscape wondering how much its going to hurt come the morning.

Experiences are what its all about, they are the the real key to happinesss rather than racking up Tesco points in a retail frenzy. Be less absorbed by consumerism and instead go Zorbing to get the ball rolling. Kitting out the kitchen can be shelved until later, instead use the cash to splash out on something a bit more daring than an eco friendly dishwasher.

Eleanor Roosevelt had it about right when she said ‘Do one thing that scares you every day.’ Well, we might want to double or treble that but it’s still great advice to go through life with.

Long after your bright and shiny phone has lost its lustre and the kitchen cabinets are slung in a skip you’ll be remembering the terror before you took that one faltering step out of the plane door or over the edge of the cliff.

That’s why here at GoBananas we’re experienced in arranging experiences and crap at kitting out kitchens – though you never can tell, there might be a market for extreme kitchen fitting!
