ACCOLADES

I don't know if it's luck or that my small ears (thanks mommma) have the napoleon complex, causing them to act more like satellite dishes than antennas. This over aggressiveness has led me to come across people saying fantastic things.

Like any good, romantic, and predictable Nicholas Sparks' movie I like to believe sometimes I was meant to hear it. 

Being like any other normal girl....I tell my girlfriends basically everything they need to know. But once in awhile, I want that one piece of advice or wisdom that couldn't come from anyone but Buddha or the Dalai Lama. But since my two dishes don't have that sort of frequency... and my friends and I gave up on  relaying on answers from the possibility of fate, chance and the radio station in high school...

Sometimes the next best thing is from the stranger who didn't realize that's exactly what I needed to hear. I write some of them down when they're things I know I probably wont hear again but should think about often. But Now...I decided to post some of them every few  days or weeks here. Because sometimes stumbling across words of enlightenment or challenge are just what we needed to hear or see for a sense of satisfaction or evaluation.

"16 THINGS THAT IT TOOK ME OVER 50 YEARS TO LEARN"

 By: Dave Barry, Nationally Syndicated Columnist

1.  Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative

    on the same night.

2.  If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race

    has not achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be "meetings."

3.  There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

4.  People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.

5.  You should not confuse your career with your life.

6.  Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

7.  Never lick a steak knife.

8.  The most destructive force in the universe is gossip.

9.  You will never find anybody who can give you a clear and

    compelling reason why we observe daylight savings time.

10. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely

    suggests that you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her at that moment.

11. There comes a time when you should stop expecting other people

    to make a big deal about your birthday. That time is age eleven.

12. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age,

    gender, religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that,  deep down inside, we ALL believe that we are above average drivers.

13. A person, who is nice to you, but rude to a waiter, is not a

    nice person. (This is very important. Pay attention. It never

    fails).

14. Your friends love you anyway.

15. Never be a afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone

    amateur built the Ark. A large group of professionals built the   Titanic.

16. Thought for the day: Men are like fine wine. They start out as    grapes, and it's up to the women to stomp the crap out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.
