We must eschew anything trivial. We must embrace all that is frivolous.... Trivial things take up all your time and dull your senses, whereas frivolity is meaningful, profound, worth living and dying for.... If we devote our lives to frivolity, the world will be a far, far better place. Humanity will be better able to fulfill its primary goal, that of having a good time. Cynthia Heimel
About This Quote

When we live our lives based on trivial things, we give up our time and energy and attention to the things that make life worth living. Instead of focusing on the things that matter most, we spend our time doing things that don’t. We become distracted and we lose sight of what we truly want out of life. If we want to be happy, we must not waste time on trivial pursuits.

Instead, we must devote ourselves to those things that will bring us joy and happiness. To do this, we need to be willing to throw away or give up anything that doesn’t bring us satisfaction now. We must embrace those things that are frivolous because they will make life more meaningful and give us a greater sense of purpose and meaning in life.
