Good question. Taking in where I am now in my life..it would have to be the statement.."forever after" when getting married.

Two cheating husbands later..the last after 25 yrs. I'm at a loss for a saying accept..Do men feel those words really?

Or is like a mortgage? 30 yrs and your out?

Thats a good one! A 30 year amoratization, payed in full!

Most important lesson i've learned is don't take for granted what you hold dearest to your heart.

What would i change? Not haveing taken my wife for granted in the early years of our marriage... i was such a prick.

To all the young kids out there reading this take it from me...stay in school as long as you can and educate yourself as much as possible. Don't be in a hurry to meet the real world as it's cruel and unforgiving financially.

I've learned that happiness is a state of mind.

It doesn't matter if I'm scrubbing toilets or doing something else not too exciting, I can be happy doing just about anything.

I'm sure we've all worked with people who show up and complain 90% of the time... I see a little humour in the fact that I can be doing the same thing as the person next to me and have a smile on my face while they are frowning.

Enjoy this world while you're here, we only have one life and every second I breathe is a gift. Every day when I wake up and see the sun, I know it's going to be a good day because I'm alive.

The world is my ocean and I'm going to splash around, play in the waves and have a good time.

Life lesson...Keep your feet shoulder width apart and a low center of gravity!!.. better stability, cause every mother ****er out there is gonna try to knock you down.. stay on your feet and fight with punches.. and if you get knocked down, make sure you knock the other guy out cold.. then stand up, get low, and be ready for the next attack.

Or

Expect nothing out of anyone! then at least you'll always get what you expected!

Wow... Bitter woman much??? lol

Looking back and having regrets is one of the worst things... life is too short. Don't make decisions that will hurt people that you love, always think about the consequences of your actions.
Once you have lost someone you loved because of your own selfishness, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

Another important lesson:
Dont let your parents shape who you are.

As soon as I realized I was turning into my dad, I went straight to a therapist. I know a lot of guys think therapy is ghay but in reality it takes more of a man to realize that you need to change yourself than it does to just become a ****up like the jackass who raised you.

Stress comes from within...not from external sources

Contentment is not achieved by having what you want but wanting what you have.

Maybe the better lesson is... dont make such shitty friends?

some very good lessons here.

this is more of a reminder to myself

yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, but today is a gift. that's why its called the present.

cliche maybe, but too many people worry about what they could have done, or should have done, or daydream about what they could do or should do....JUST DO IT.

Life lesson learned- Just broke up with a girl after 2 yrs. and lost everything we had together....Lesson- Dont let emotions drive your actions. Go with your gut and dont try and change a person. They will never change until they are ready no matter what u do.
