My 40-plus years of life has been filled with more joy, love, heartache and excitement than I could have dreamed. This is what I have learned…
- Be passionate about everything, even making pancakes.
- Love is a huge risk ~ take it.
- Wear red.
- Beauty is not about makeup, nails or moisturizer~ it's about good choices, a strong spirit and a smile.
- There is a beautifully perfect order to the universe that you will never fully understand ~embrace it.
- When people are hurtful or insensitive, don't take it personally; it's usually not about you.
- You ARE what you eat.
- Always seek knowledge, always question knowledge (my dad told me that one).
- There are no rules that are rules.
- Hug strangers.
- With privilege, comes responsibility.
- The hardest way is almost always the best way.
- Don't be afraid to love your body, it will return the favor.
- Read everyday.
- Travel, you learn more about yourself by learning about others.
- Trust your intuition.
- Don't be afraid to leave~ home, a relationship, the state, the country~ but don't be afraid to return either.
- Never assume (you know the saying).
- Only look back to smile on what you have done.
