The Art of Living

Good afternoon, blog-world. I hope today has found you in good heart and good health. I think for today's blog, I'm going to share some simple truths I'm picking up along the way.
1. The little things are the most important; like peanuts. They are sooo tiny, but if you're allergic, they can kill you. If there's something going on in your life that seems minuet, don't ignore it. Watch it closely.
2. The society we live in today is far too concerned about titles. In my humble opinion, titles lead to the destruction of many. Now let's ponder on that, hmm?
In history, it's a clear easy pattern. The desire of certain titles has prompted heinous acts of violence. From Cesar to JFK, a single persons lust for a higher title in society and the power often associated with it has done no good for anyone. This trend far outstretches the political world.
 Just take a look at some of Hollywood's starlets. Everything from sex scandal and drugs, the minute they hit the top, it all comes crashing down. Tom Cruise, Mel Gibson, Lindsay Loghan, Paris Hilton. All serve as excellent examples of what chasing after titles can do to a person.
Those are just some large scale examples of course. In relationships, people get so caught up in the titles they lose sight of the actual relationship. What does it matter if the whole world calls you boyfriend and girlfriend? Or engaged, or married? When you're young as I am, titles become the hot center of attention. But so few young people such as myself really grasp the meaning behind said titles. Its a popularity contest in which one loses sight of who made that title possible.
 My point being, official titles can be great, but never forsake the "You and Me" for the "We."  All relationships, regardless of title, include two separate people with their own wants and desires, and you should always be aware of the give and take aspects. The minute you forget that the person you love has dreams of their very own, you're done for.
3. Never skip school to go to the doctor's if you aren't really that sick. You'll come out of it with a prostate exam o.O Ask my brother...he knows.
4. Indulgence is a necessary counterpart to the hard work we have to do every day. Just don't OVER indulge ;)
5. If you get the chance to do something over...take it. It's usually worth the risk involved.
6. You're never to old to accomplish fantastic things. So don't put limits on yourself.
7. Laugh hysterically, and cry passionately.
8. Don't ever change who you are to impress someone else. Being honest and upfront will take you much further.
9. Go to the Zoo as often as you can. Just take my word on that one and do it.
and to finish off my little list here...
10. Never pay more.... for fabulous!
