Let her learn from my mistakes, please.
Part one here.
- Be you. The world will adjust.
- Say no to the things you don’t want to do – you don’t need an excuse.
- Eat junk food while your metabolism is good.
- School is great, but educate yourself on the things they leave out, too; money, things that grow, gender issues, life hacks, health, and how to make dinner out of one bendy carrot and some old pasta.
- Don’t believe everything you think.
- “If you live for people’s acceptance, you will die from their rejection.”
- Life is too short to worry about matching socks.
- Less is more. This is generally true of all things, but especially words and possessions.
- If it doesn’t matter, let it go.
- Tell the truth. Honesty is the highest art.
- Find the people who love like you do.
- Don’t compare yourself to strangers on the internet.
- Drink more water.
- Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
- If a feature of a woman’s appearance doesn’t have a male counterpart, it probably isn’t a real thing. See, saddlebags, VPL, thigh gap, cankles.
- Babies have cellulite. It isn’t uhealthy or shameful or something to fix – it’s normal human functioning.
- Set really good passwords, with non-dictionary words.
- Kittens are less trouble than puppies.
- Sometimes the hardest battles are between what you think and what you feel.
