What is your advice to those younger than yourself?
Live each day to it's fullest. Do not take people, places or experiences for granted. Love the people you love even when they get on your nerves, to the fullest. Don't ever be ashamed to hug your parents. If your mother is making you crazy, it's not your fault, just try and find even the tiniest of good in her and love that part of her. If you don't like someone, either get to know them better, you just may find they could turn out to be your best friend... or just don't waste your time with them, life is too short. Don't SMOKE.. it's not cool, it doesn't taste good, it WILL KILL YOU. Always think before you do something. Love is an emotion, it takes time to grow. Physical attraction is not love. If a man hits you once he will probably do it again and again so run. I can't say that about women because I've never been in that situation but it's probably true too. Always be honest.. you're going to have to eventually anyway, so why not be that way from the start. Try to forgive, holding on to resentments only hurts yourself the person you are mad at has probably forgotten it and it's only taking up your own time.
But most importantly believe in yourself, trust your gut. You can either be your best cheerleader in life or your own worst enemy. Never tell yourself I could have done better, just do it better next time.... Life is just practice, mistakes happen, shake your head like an etch-er-sketch and go on. Enjoy your time on Earth but know there HAS to be better things to come.

My advice to others younger than me would be, Get a good education before you have kids. Don't rush through life. If something sounds too good to be true, DON'T DO IT!!! LOL Brandie
Wow, you just about covered it all Ms Promise. I'd add, don't take anything for granted, even the smaller things. This reminds me of when I was in the Hospital, in Isolation. I had a big window that looked out over the park and I wanted to go outside so bad for some fresh air, but I couldn't for almost 3 months. That'll make you appreciate life a little more.
Love ya!

My advise...
xoxo ~Myra
My Advice:
- Have pride in yourself and your abilities
- Have self respect enough to care about yourself, and others around you
- Understand that bad things DO happen to GOOD people.
- Realize that it is not important what happens to you, but rather how you deal
with it.
- "That which does not kill you, Makes you stronger"
- Beleive that you are special, just because you are YOU. And God doesnt make
mistakes.
- Do the right thing, not because the boss wants it, the customer wants it, or your
parents want it...............
Do it because its important to you. Do the right things, because it is the right
thing. Because if you are only doing it for others and their opinion of you ?
Will you still do it when they are not watching ?
If you do it for YOURSELF........ You are always there to watch.
just one word: believe
here's the rest of the words...
