1. I've learned that if I don't love, trust and respect myself, nobody else will.

2. I've learned that sometimes the only way to shut someone up is to shut them down. Is it worth it?

3. I've learned that there are worse things than wanting to kill yourself and doing it-- like needing to but not being able to because you are in such a deep depression you literally can't get up off the floor, or think rationally.

4. The only law that doesn't change is the law of love.

5. I can't pick my blood relatives, but I can pick my family.

That cliches sometimes can be true, or else how did they start off?

1. It's better to be really quiet than to say too much.

2. It's useless to get angry with someone who won't change their ways.

3. Sometimes you go through the grieving process when you experience a loss other than death (the termination of a relationship, for example).

4. Imaginary friends are better than real life friends: they may not be with you physically, but at least they won't ever hurt your feelings or leave you for the popular crowd.

5. Running with cheap shoes leads to shin splints.

6. Take good care of your body, because infections are not fun.

7. Take good care of your teeth, because getting cavities drilled is not fun (except for the nitrous oxide).

8. Honey mustard tastes more like mustard than honey.

9. Even if you feel like a kid on the inside, people will always judge you by how old you are on the outside.

10. 90% of what you worry about doesn't even happen.

1.) If you are in a car and someone waves at the car as the car passes them, you should wave back.

2.) Violence is not the answer unless it is the right answer.

Paranoia comes in handy 'cause someone, out there, is out to get you.

1) Always have a list of people to take out when you go crazy and edit it often.
2) Trust is highly over rated and highly relative.
3) Saying you love someone and showing you love someone are two different things.
4) Flowers=guilt.
5) If you want a kitten ask for a horse.
6) Toads aren't ugly, they're just toads.

4.) Parrots are annoying.
5.) Don't drink the water...they put something in it, to make you forget...
6.) Don't eat the green wobbly bit.
