1.         Life isn’t fair but it’s still good
2.         When in doubt, just take the next small step
3.         Life is too short to waste time hating anyone
4.         Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick.  Your friends and parents    will, stay in touch.
5.         Pay off your credit card   every month.
6.         You don’t have to win every argument.  Agree to disagree
7.         Cry with someone. It’s more healing than crying alone
8.         Its ok to get angry with GOD.  He can take it
9.         Save for retirement starting with your first pay check
10.       When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11.       Make peace with your past, so it won’t screw up the present
 12.      Its OK to let your children see you cry.
13.       Don’t compare your life to others.  You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14.       If a relationship has to be secret, you shouldn’t be in it
15.       Everything can change in the blink of an eye.  But don’t worry, god never blinks
16.       Take a deep breath, it calms the mind
19.       It’s never too late to have a happy childhood.  But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20.       When it comes to going after what you lose in life, don’t take no for an answer.
21.       Burn the candles,  use the  nice  sheets, wear  the fancy  lingerie, Don’t save  it for a  special  occasion .  Today is special.
22.       Over prepare, than go with the flow
23.       Be eccentric now, don’t wait for old age to wear purple
24.       The most important sex organ is a brain

33.       Behave in miracles    
34.       God loves you because of who god is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do it
35.       Don’t audit life, show up and make the most of it now
