MoVinG oN: Life's lessons

I recently read the below post on a friends' blog, and since I thought it was so good and spot on, I decided to share it. Enjoy! (P.S. What's in the brackets are my own two cents.)

MoVinG oN: Life's lessons: "I have so much to learn about life, and I can't even say that I've lived that much till now. But life has taught me some things throughout my short journey here.

1. If you fall, no matter how long you lie there, you will always get back up again.

2. Eventually, someone will offer you a hand, and it is your choice to take it or reject it. [I suggest taking it.]

3. It really does all work out in the end.

4. And because it does work out, worrying is just unnecessary.

5. Better to laugh than to cry [but sometimes a good cry is what you need].

6. No matter how long you cry, you will have to stop long enough to breath. So you might as well stop altogether.

7. A little prayer goes a long way.

8. Look around you, and you will see who in your life really matters, and who is just taking up space.

9. G-d always knows what's best [and never gives you more than you can handle].

10. A week really is a long time, especially when all decisions are made a week before camp/school starts.

11. Wherever you are, that's where you'll be, and wherever you are there is always a Walmart. (Or some equivalent.) So pack light.

12. Talking to friends instead of dealing with things on your own really does make the burden lighter.

13. Some people aren't so bad once you get to know them. [First impressions can be wrong. Give people a second (or third) chance.]

14. Dealing with difficulties makes you a stronger and wiser person.

15. Running away solves nothing. But vacations are nice once in awhile.

16. Never ask G-d to test you, because He will. Be happy with the easy things you have to deal with. [Though G-d will probably test you anyway.]

17. No matter what happens today- there will always be a tomorrow.

18. Everything really does look better in the morning.

19. Trust in yourself, because G-d put you here for a reason, and only you can do the job that was assigned to you.

20. Never do a half job, because you will have to do it again, and then you will be doing a job and a half.

21. The only approval you need is your own.

22. Ask not "why me?" but rather, how can I be the best me I can be?

23. Bad hair days will not kill you [though they will make you look ridiculous].

24. Laughter cures all. [After all, they don't say, "Laughter is the best medicine" for no reason.]

25. And lastly, "It's all good", because you know what? It always is in the end.

Feel free to add your own.
