The best piece of advice I was ever given is the one that I would pass on this was told to me by a very wise woman named Mavor, "Life isn't just about being alive, it's about experiencing EVERYTHING life has to offer both good and bad. Relish them both because because you can't appreciate the good, without experiencing the bad. For instance chocolate is always good, but after eating from a dung pile, it's value escalates, as with everything else in life."  |

First let me say "Excellent Post"!....My advice would be to tell your loved ones that you love them. Kiss your children, enjoy your family, and appreciate your relationships in life for it is FAR TOO SHORT and goes entirely too quickly. Kiss those babies! Kiss those grown children! Kiss that husband/wife and never ever ever let a single day go by that they don't know how much you love them...  |

"look people in their eyes"..be this when you're talking to them..or walking down a hall ---anywhere, everywhere - don't hang your head, don't avert your eyes --look people in the eyes always.  |

The few times that this has actually happened to me, I've basically told people that they have no reason to do what anyone else says. "Live your life by what you believe, and recognise that others can only do the same."  |

how or why? well, many don't do that, and it is seen negatively - if you look people in their eyes they assume you have confidence whether you do or not - looking someone in their eyes is saying, i am on your level - you are not above me. people avert their eyes when they feel inferior in some way - - - and don't think 'shyness' is an excuse, because all shyness is is a feeling of inferiority..or lack of self confidence ---try it, and you'll see, whether you have confidence or not - it will come. |

Here's another one of my own,"Never lie. Lying will ruin a persons credibility. Always remember that trust is hard to earn and easy to lose." It's a very hard thing to follow but it's true! - |

I would tell them "To Live in The Hearts of Those You Love, Is Not to Die." It is a quote that is written on a grave marker for my family's plot. I basically means to live life to the fullest and make sure that those you love know it while you are alive. There's a bit more to it if you read behind the lines. :)  |

Hello Smooth Criminal :) There is a saying that I read in one of Hunter S Thompson's books. It goes: "When the going gets weird..the weird turn pro." I've always liked it. My own translation would be: "I can do anything...if I have to." Good idea for a post. Write on...:)  |

My peice of advice to anyone who would care would be. Love life. Life is so short, in no time at all it's over. Take time to stop and look at the sky, look at the trees blowing in the breeze, smell honeysuckle and KNOW that you are a smaller peice of a larger puzzle. It's important to me to think that there's more to life than work, and struggle. Why would I do this. Simply put. Life is too short. On your grave stone would you want it written. "wish I'd spent more time at work" ?  |

TRUTH... I would tell anyone and everyone, that lying even a little, beats the self esteem, causes depression, and makes confusion where there doesn't need to be any... Having the guts to be truthful, makes you a more respectable person, with a happier outlook... imho :) |
