Advice

I am sure we have all read or seen the “All I really need to know I learned in Kindergarten” advise, but since I did not go to kindergarten, I did learn these things from living in Woodbridge Virginia and going to Gar-Field high school.  Funny how the things I learned as a kid and young adult I have used thought out the years.  I learned to share!  I share memories everyday with the peeps from back in the day and I try to share things with my family and friends. If I have it and you need it chances are it’s yours.  As life is not fair as we all know but I learned to play fair.  It did bite me in the butt a couple of times but I am a better man for it.  I always wash my hands before I eat and I do flush the toilet.  May not put the seat down all the time but if you hit the water, I bet it’s clean. LOL.  Pets, relationships, friends, plants, etc, they all die off, we all do so enjoy the precious moments you have with all of your friends, family and things.  You also can never have enough friends.  Believe it or not they help when your down and they pick you up in strange ways.  One of the things from the advice was Live a balanced life.  I am always trying to learn but learn some, think some, play some sleep some and whatever you do live some.  Working all the time and never stopping to smell the roses suck and no one should do it.  Money is important but it is not everything.  Take any one of those items and turning it around into sophisticated adult terms and apply it to your family life or your work or government or your world and it holds true and clear and firm. Think what a better world it would be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk at about 3 o'clock in the afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. Or, if all governments had as a basic policy to always put things back where they found them and to clean up their own mess.  Until Next time!
