I am so not a writer, but have had these things on my mind for the past little while. I wrote them down so I can refer back to them in moments of challenge. I thought I would share. Hopefully they will help some of you as well. What I have learned in the last year: 1. If you don’t try something, you will never know! Better to try and fail or change your mind, then to always wonder. 2. Someone or something cannot make you happy. Only you can make you, happy and you have to choose it! 3. No matter where you are the people that you love and that matter the most will always find a way to love and support you! 4. Don’t worry about what people will think or say, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that you are doing what you want and being who you want to be. (still working on this one) 5. You can wish for things to be the way they were, but even if you re create things to be exactly how you think you remember, it will never be the same. Things change, people change. Embrace the change or fight the change, either way it’s going to happen. 6. Listen to your gut! It’s seldom wrong and when it is you probably weren’t really listening to your gut! 7. If you don’t want to do something, it’s ok to say no. It’s your life and you’re in charge. (still working on this one too) 8. Life can change in an instant, good or bad. Cherish the moments you have with loved ones. Those times could vanish right before your eyes. 9. If you don’t understand someone’s passion about something, just remember not everyone understands what your passionate about either. What’s important is to be passionate about something and support others in theirs. 10. Don’t let your parents and grandparents drive you too crazy, your not that far away from acting just like them! 11. If you truly believe in something then stand up and fight for it, but do it in a loving way. Not everyone believes in the same thing. 12. Bad things are always going to happen. We can choose to let it consume us or we can choose to be brave and fight our way through it! Either way the bad things will have still happened so the choice is yours. 13. It truly is the simple things in life that matter most. 14. Don’t let the day, to day crap get in the way of enjoying your life. It goes by way to fast to not enjoy it! I know this is all the obvious stuff we have heard before, and let’s face it, it took me way more than a year to learn them. In fact I am sure I am not done learning. All I know for sure is that this last year, especially this last month I have truly had to use and think about every single one of these things. I am sure I will have to refer back to this list often as a reminder to myself, but hey it’s a start and that’s why I made the list in the first place. Peace and Love! Cori
