What I've Learned

1. People are only as important to you as you make them.

2. Only you can decide when the healing begins after a relationship has gone sour.

3. Never make someone else a priority who has chosen to make you an option.

4. Keep your cool and get the job done! If you panic or fly off the handle during adversity, you've just wasted time and energy that you will most certainly need.

5. Keep your wits about you when everybody else is losing theirs and you'll look like the coolest, most intelligent, and attractive cat in the room! (Even if you really aren't!)

6. Keep looking outside of yourself or through someone else to substantiate your happiness and chances are, you'll always be looking. Happiness is within.

7. As you get older your body is constantly demanding certain adjustments in your lifestyle. Ignore your body's demands and it really won't matter much to you anymore if you get
my drift!

8. A man that is constantly buying flowers for his woman is a man that is probably guilty of much.

9. Michael Jackson is dead yet, Keith Richards (of the Rolling Stones) is still alive... proof positive that life is sometimes confusing and death even more so.

1o. If you really want to know a person's character, lend him/her some money.

11. If you're not early then, you're late... there is no in between. (At least, this was my father's rule.)

12. I couldn't be a politician or a celebrity. I'm not the type to apologize for something I said... especially, if I really did mean it at the time I said it.
