I agree you have to love yourself before you can love others but I take exception to your point in this sense. When I was young I thought the most important thing in all the world was finding the proper soul-mate. It was more important to me than fame, money, career, possessions, you name it. Maybe it was a teenage sex drive that made me think that way but in my late twenties I was lucky enough to find that person, had a four month romance, and we've been married now 34 years. I still feel exactly the same way today, only more so.

As for life's lessons. That's pretty heavy stuff. I can think of several but I think one of the more important ones is 'to appreciate what you have'. All the rest of mine would be that basic and simple as well. Want another, 'accept responsibility for your own actions'. See what I mean. Nothing earth shak'en.

Just to lighten it up a bit, here are a few other types of life's lessons:

1. Never squat with your spurs on.

2. Don't worry about biting off more than you can chew. Your mouth's probably bigger than you think it is.

3. If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing you need to do is stop diggin'.

4. Never slap a man that's chewin' tobacco.

5. If you think you're riding ahead of the herd, look back every now and then to make sure they're still there.

6. If you get to feelin' kind of cocky, try bossin' another man's dog around for a while.

7. Yo can not hold a cat and run a dustbuster at the same time.

8. Never miss a good opportunity to shut up.

I learned that it's OK to have a blast with my S2000. At first I was feeling like a show-off when I accelerated quickly on the freeway. I got over it. If the car can go fast, why not? I just have so much fun with it!
(Of course I'm doing it safely because I am Vintage.)

I got a good scare today. Was driving around 65mph, late for a blood donation appointment, when I noticed a semi pulling across in front of me, going through his fwy off-ramp stop sign. Started to swerve, he stopped and I passed on by. At the Red Cross I told her my blood pressure would be high due to that. It was 140 over 90. I gave my good blood, but the right way. Phew!

A couple of good rules to incorporate into your own life:

1. Never see or hear anything that could subsequently lead to a subpoena.

2. Always put your contact lenses in BEFORE eating the pizza with jalapeno peppers on it.
