Ann Posted January 20, 2006 Share Posted January 20, 2006 A young person is asking you to give them advice. What is the very best advice about life that you feel you could offer someone, based on what you have learned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ann Posted January 20, 2006 Author Share Posted January 20, 2006 Live each day to its very fullest. Do not take people for granted. Believe in yourself. Trust your instincts. If you feel something is wrong, it probably is. Life is just a practice run. Mistakes happen. When they do, just shake your head and go on.

lilyjohn Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 It is more important to give of yourself than to give things. When you marry make sure you are marrying someone you can talk about everything with and when no words are said the silence with be peacefull not full of tension. Never expect to change someone and never let anyone try to change you. Sometimes life is not always fair but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't be. Friends and family are what make life worthwhile. Keep God in your life and in your home. He will never fail you even when others do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzie Q Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Don't waste your time with worry. It's ineffective and useless. Worrying does not change the results. Realize that while we can control some things in our lives, we are not in control of the big picture. Surrender yourself to the higher authority.

kim Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 First of all, enjoy high school, don't be in such a hurry to get out; the "real world" isn't any better! Don't be afraid to take a chance on something you believe in. And never regret not doing something you think you should have done. It happened for a reason.

kamataca Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 God loves you and made you EXACTLY who you are for a special reason. Therefore you deserve to be treated with love and respect. (Just had this conversation this week with my Middle School students, particularly in addressing abusive situations. Must be why it is foremost in my mind.)

Fall54 Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Above all remember that LOVE is the most important thing in life. You can have millions of dollars and not be happy.
