| | so yeah, i'm still young (for a little while longer).
I don't claim to know everything, in fact there are still miles for me to walk along the educational highway...
but there are things that you learn in a life filled with experiences, both hidden and obvious...
you can either gather them up and try to see the good in all of it...
or you can hide and run away and expect the worst of everything.
So here's a few nuggets of, albeit obvious, wisdom that I think some people just need to be reminded of.
-Lies
will always, ALWAYS come back to kick you in the ass. This goes for
half-truths as well. If you're going to lie, at least accept the
repercussions of said deception.
-It's never good to owe anyone
anything, but if you do owe someone something, pay them back. In
full. As promised. If you never intend to pay anyone back, at least
have the decency to say so in the beginning. THEN DON'T TAKE THEIR
MONEY.
-Sex is fun. But it's also not fun when you fuck the
wrong people. Whether you believe it or not, you're now bonded with a
human being that you may or may not ever want to see again. Just
remember that the next time you hop into bed with someone new.
-Hurting
yourself will NEVER EVER solve any problems or erase the pain. That
relief that you feel will be but a passing moment and the scars will
only remind you of your mistakes that took you there. Instead of
hurting yourself, why don't you help someone else.
-Everything is good in moderation. Everything. Moderation. Even good things can turn bad when used in excess.
-You
are not the only person that matters on the entire planet. Other
people do exist and whether you realize it or not, your actions affect
several of those who are involved both directly and indirectly in your
life.
-There is no prince charming. There is no damsel in
distress. There is just you and people who could be compatible with
you to make both your lives better.
-Early to bed, early to rise
may not make you healthy, wealthy or wise immediately, but it helps in
the long run. Even if you HATE mornings like me, and despise getting
up while it's still pre-noon, you feel alot more accomplished by the
end of the day... and you may just actually be tired enough to sleep
again!
-A degree isn't everything, but you can always benefit
from learning something new every day whether or not it's laid out in a
synopsis or course.
-If you wish for your life to be better,
only you and you alone can make it better. It doesn't take money or
power or love, all it takes is you making your life better. A concrete
solid decision to move forward and not backward.
-Everybody
falls. Not everyone has someone else to pick them back up, so every
once in a while you might have to pick your own ass off the floor.
-Cleanliness isn't godliness... but it sure as hell is nice.
-Ignoring your problems will not make them go away. In fact, usually it makes them bigger and worse.
-Friends aren't always going to be nice to each other, but you know what? Real friends aren't usually going for "nice" they're going for "real".
more to be added later...
