5. That Mom was right most of the times (and she's still right sometimes)

4. That you get more with sugar than with salt

3. That you're never alone when you have friends and family who love you (even if they are thousands of miles away).

2. Words and actions are like a bucket of spilled water, you can take some back into the bucket, but not all.

1. Love just the way you want to be loved back.

never leave a chocolate bar on your dash board in July in Arizona

never go for a walk in a dog park with sandals

never ask any woman if she is pregnant

don't promise your children anything, they will remember

the expiration on milk is not a suggestion

the easiest way to look pretty is to surround yourself with ugly people

5. Laugh so hard you cry and always try to find something to laugh at when you cry.

4. If someone truly knows you they will assume the best not the worst.

3. Tust until given a reason not to.

2. Love unconditionally.

1. Writing your name in the snow takes practice... :lol:

1. NUMBER ONE and most important is not to take life for granted. You are not promised tomorrow and thus never go to bed mad at your loved ones without calling a truce and saying I LOVE YOU and we can continue this in the am. Usually it is forgotten in the am.

2. Depending on your attitude you can have more done with sugar than vingear.

3. Remember to smile you get less wrinkles that way. :D It takes more muscles to frown than to smile.

4. The grass is not always greener on the other side.

5. Do not sweat the small stuff. Life is too precious.

1. Don't sweat the petty things and don't pet the sweaty things.

...

But seriously...

2. Don't always believe the bad things others say, especially about yourself.

3. It's a good thing to lend a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on, but sooner or later you have to let people stand on their own two feet.

4. Sometimes the road to being a better person is paved with words left unsaid.

5. Don't assume to understand the actions of others, even if you've walked in their shoes.

Every important lesson I've learned in life I got from reading Hamlet in high school

Yet here, Laertes! aboard, aboard, for shame!

The wind sits in the shoulder of your sail,

And you are stay'd for. There; my blessing with thee!

And these few precepts in thy memory

See thou character. Give thy thoughts no tongue,

Nor any unproportioned thought his act.

Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar.

Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,

Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel;

But do not dull thy palm with entertainment

Of each new-hatch'd, unfledged comrade. Beware

Of entrance to a quarrel, but being in,

Bear't that the opposed may beware of thee.

Give every man thy ear, but few thy voice;

Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.

Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy,

But not express'd in fancy; rich, not gaudy;

For the apparel oft proclaims the man,

And they in France of the best rank and station

Are of a most select and generous chief in that.

Neither a borrower nor a lender be;

For loan oft loses both itself and friend,

And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

This above all: to thine ownself be true,

And it must follow, as the night the day,

Thou canst not then be false to any man.

Farewell: my blessing season this in thee!

Except maybe for that stuff about the French.

And also - don't drunk dial. Dont drunk email either
