The saying is true - laugh more, worry less, life has a way of working it's own route out.

lol, Dear Younger Self - good name for this post.


Dear Younger Self - those plastic earrings in the 80s are never going to be a good reminder of your sense of style, along with your poodle hairdo and those pointy pink heels that killed your feet.

Dont believe life is always going to be fair & happy ever after. Be with people you can laugh with & never take things for granted.

Its a funny thing but if i am asked " would you change how life went or would you do anything different?" All i can take is have you learned any bloody thing ?applause

My advice :

Youth is wasted on the young...

...how we take for granted all that we have, all that we are...

Am minding my folks for a while, mam and dad 85 and 89 - and to see them so crippled, in pain, unable to do the simple things we pay no heed to - THAT makes me realise how much we take our good health for granted when we are young.

It ain't always going to be so...

As kids we are primed for an expected process; school and job or school, college and career with marriage and family thrown in there as a given. I really don;t know how we can prepare kids to deal with the unexpected other than to expose and explore options with them

#the big bang theory#

I think sheldon (jim parsons character) who believed he could make a time machine summed it up good and proper

He said he would stop trying altogether because even if he made one all he would do is give it to a younger version of himselfyay

Oddly enough he was rightrolling on the floor laughing
