Life Lessons (Again, without explanations):
- No one is perfect, if you think they are, they can only let you down.
- People will believe what they want to, often without hearing all sides.
- If your best isn't good enough for a person, then that person isn't good enough for you.
- Maintain your self-respect, walk away before you can't.
- A relationship should never be adversarial. Your teammates, not opponents.
- Trust is built slowly, but broken quickly,
- Always pause to think before you do or say anything, consider all viewpoints.
- If someone doesn't show interest, then they are, well uninterested.
- Sometimes it is essential to tell people how you feel, so long as doing so doesn't hurt them unnecessarily.
- Sometimes if you know something about someone that they don't know you know, it's best to let them tell you in their own time, as long as it doesn't to do harm to either of you.
- You might need to hold your tongue from saying some things, and I mean literally.
- We as humans are inclined to form an opinion about someone before getting to know them, so we could end up loving or hating the idea of a person, rather than the person. Either way, this way of thinking will affect our actual impression of the person.
- I joke around and always bring up Rule 13, that I am always right. I'm not, in fact, I've been made shockingly aware that I am not right nearly as often as I thought. I am imperfect, and I always will be, so using an absolute like "always" is meant as a joke. Trust me, I'm right.
- Friends are a valuable commodity, one that over the years increases in value, invest in them. Support them, believe in them, and encourage them. In turn, they will do the same for you when you need it most.
- Sometimes juice companies use sweetened, colored, apple juice and market it as grape juice. Lies.
- If it's not pushing you forward, towards something better, then it's pulling you back, to where you don't want to be. Change it.
- Don't live passively, be the most active part of your life.
- Don't let others make decisions for you, they don't have to live with the consequences.
I know, there's a lot, but there could have been a lot more. I'll save those for another post another day.
Until next time, dear readers...
