These be my thoughts:
1. Be financially independent.
2. Be emotionally healthy. You and you
alone are responsible for your inner and deepest fulfilment for the rest of your
life.
3. Love and take pleasure from your physical body. Your
body is merely an outer case made from flesh and bones. It is the least most
interesting part of you.
4. Give
5. Don't tell lies.
6. Try to put others first knowing it's not always easy or possible. Just try.
7. Exercise and move your body everyday.
8. Don’t hold back the tears- let ‘em
flow baby!
9. Eat well
10.
Drink
well and be merry
11.
Music
makes everything better.
12.
Work
energetically.
13.
Regularly
bathe in nature.
14.
Don’t
have overly high expectations of others- you’ll only feel let down, rather have
high expectations of yourself knowing you’ll disappoint yourself too from time
to time.
15.
Eating
a pack of cheese and onion Taytos at any time of the day or night is perfectly
acceptable.
16.
Be
prepared to be alone.
17.
Don't call me princess for god sake - I'm not waiting to be saved by any bloody prince!
18.
Invest
in high quality curtains- they’ll last lifetimes.
19. The universe will reward you for taking risks on its behalf.
19. The universe will reward you for taking risks on its behalf.
20.
Put
good quality lipstick on your lips every day and smile!
21.
Search
for meaning in life- but know you’ll not find any mind bending answers in any
one place.
22.
Laugh
as freely and as frequently as is humanly possible.
23.
Learn
how to listen deeply.
24.
Reflect
often on your actions and how they may be affecting you and those around you. I’ve
never thought it wrong to overthink
our emotions/actions.
25.
Fight
laziness.
26.
Don’t
curse excessively. Find a better word and use that instead.
27.
Life
will make you suffer- this is inevitable.
28.
Please
clip your toenails in the privacy of a bathroom- thanks.
29.
Be
swept off your feet at least once knowing it probably isn’t going to last. Only partake in casual sex if your heart can handle it.
30.
“Romantic”
Love is largely a commercially driven pile of rubbish.
31. I love pigs.
32.
Love’s success or lack thereof may well boil down to the little things in the end, the shared workload,
the selfless dependability, the give and take of duties and the balance of lovingly putting each other or children
first as much as is possible. Love doesn't exist as a thing in its own right I don't think. Its just about giving really, I think. At 80
years old when all the distractions of life are gone and we're not so busy doing what we have always done, stimulating each
other’s brains through good conversation, recalling special memories shared together and lifting each other's soul through
raucous laughter might be all that is left.
33.
Ultimately
life is a bit of a lottery anyway, some get luckier than others or make more
luck for themselves. At least try give yourself a good chance from the off
because despite your best efforts things might still not work out. See number
27. Number 27 and number 22 are inextricably linked.
34.
Materialism
is vulgar.
35.
Travel
solo with absolutely no definite idea where you’re going.
36.
Being
a mother is a truly remarkable thing, but know that it is not the sole purpose
of life as a female. There are many different levels of sisterhood. None is
higher or greater than the other.
37.
Quality
over quantity- pass time in the company of good and real friends, don’t fake it
in an effort to avoid being on your own.
38. Good communication skills are essential.
39.
In
the end what others think of you is none of your business. This is your life so just be true to it and
to yourself.
40. Now....a pint of Murphy's and a pack of cheese and onion tayto would be lovely- nice one, cheers!
