INTERESTING FACTS
U MUST KEEP TO HEART
- You will be unhappy if you follow your parents’
dream
-While it’s a great thing to make your
parents happy, its an even greater thing to make yourself happy. It’s always
hard to let one’s parent down, but letting yourself down is a much heavier load
to carry around with you for the rest of your life.
Spending eight years in med school or
slaving away for the bar exam isn’t worth the 30 seconds of pride it will give
your parents
when they tell their friends what their son or daughter is doing. Do yourself a favor and forget about their dreams for a minute and focus on realizing your own.

- Sometimes people are mean for no reason
- Your mother might have raised you with the
notion that no one is a bitch for no reason, but that’s just another secret she
didn't want to let you in on.
Unfortunately, some people are just mean. They aren't having a bad
day,something terrible didn't just happen in their family.
They are just evil, bad people who you need
to stay away from. We all have demons, but those who let the demons control
them are the ones who don’t deserve your time or pity.
- Happiness trumps money, but money does a good
job for a while
-Contrary to how you viewed yourself in your
20s and 30s, you will most likely not own yachts and mansions on rolling acres.
You will most likely be scraping the
barrel, teetering on the edge every month when your landlord comes knocking on
your dilapidated door. But if you did it right, you will hopefully be working
towards your dream and you will be happy.
If
you did it the other way, pursued the career of fame and fortune, you will most
likely be awoken at the end of each month on your Egyptian Cotton sheets to the
cold knocks of depression and regret. Make sure you are following your bliss,
not the 401k.
- You will not always stay this good-looking
forever
-Looks fade. It’s a truth you don’t want to
acknowledge until you’re forced to look at yourself in the mirror one morning
and accept that you are not the hot 18-year-old you once knew.
You can spend your days looking back at old
high school photographs of your skinny thighs and perfect body or you can get
on with your life and realize that the personality and skills you have gained
far outweigh the youthful complexion you lost somewhere along the way.
- Your best friends will change and so will you
-Life isn't “Grease” and you will not always
stay together. Your friends from high school, college and even the first few
years in your new job will change.
You are growing and moving at speeds unlike
ever before and trying to slow down so the rest can catch up is only going to
hold you back and create resentment for the people you once loved.
Let those you once loved flourish as they
may and if you have the chance to stay close, then take it. But do not mourn
the end of every friendship because life is about new friends and fond memories
of the old ones.
- You may never find the man/woman of your dreams
-The idea of settling for the love of your
life was once as absurd and ridiculous a notion as 3D printers. But the inevitable has happened and
life has progressed to a point at which 3D printers are real and the love of
your life is not.
Of course there’s always a chance he or she
is still out there, but more than likely, you've already realized you must
accept the cold, hard truth that there is no perfect person for you and you
must learn how to settle for those who could eventually turn into something
close enough to the love of your life.
