Always believe in the magic of life............
Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their sufferings. Some suffer too much.. Others too little.

Trust
Me On The Sunscreen
=======================
by Mary Schmich - 1997 Graduation speech
If I could offer you only one tip for the future,
sunscreen
would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have
been
proven by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has
no basis
more reliable than my own meandering
experience.
I will dispense this advice now.
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth.
Oh, never mind. You will not understand the power and
beauty of
your youth until they've faded. But trust me, in 20
years,
you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a
way you
can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and
how
fabulous you really looked. You are not as fat as you
imagine.
Don't worry about the future. Or worry, but know that
worrying
is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation
by
chewing bubble gum. The real troubles in your life are
apt to
be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind
that
blindside you at 4 pm on some idle Tuesday.
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Sing.
Don't be reckless with other people's
hearts.
Don't put up with people who are reckless with
yours.
Floss.
Don't waste your time on jealousy.
Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're
behind.
The race is long, and in the end, it's only with
yourself.
Remember compliments you receive. Forget the
insults.
If you succeed in doing this, tell me how.
Keep your old love letters. Throw away your old bank
statements.
Stretch.
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you want to do
with
your life. The most interesting people I know didn't
know at 22
what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the
most
interesting 40-year-olds I know still
don't.
Get plenty of calcium. Be kind to your
knees.
You'll miss them when they're gone.
Maybe you'll marry, maybe you won't.
Maybe you'll have children, maybe you
won't.
Maybe you'll divorce at 40,
maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th
wedding
anniversary.
Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too
much
or berate yourself either.
Your choices are half chance. So are everybody
else's.
Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can.
Don't be afraid of it or of what other people think of
it.
It's the greatest instrument you'll ever
own.
Dance, even if you have nowhere to do it but your living
room.
Read the directions, even if you don't follow
them.
Do not read beauty magazines. They will only make you
feel ugly.
Get to know your parents.
You never know when they'll be gone for
good.
Be nice to your siblings. They're your best link to your
past
and the people most likely to stick with you in the
future.
Understand that friends come and go, but with a precious
few you
should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in
geography and
lifestyle, because the older you get, the more you need
the
people who knew you when you were young.
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes
you hard.
Live in Northern California once, but leave before it
makes you soft.
Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths:
Prices will rise.
Politicians will philander.
You, too, will get old.
And when you do, you'll fantasize that when you were
young,
prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and
children
respected their elders.
Respect your elders.
Don't expect anyone else to support you.
Maybe you have a trust fund. Maybe you'll have a wealthy
spouse.
But you never know when either one might run
out.
Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're
40 it
will look 85.
Be careful whose advice you buy,
but be patient with those who supply it.
Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of
fishing
the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over
the ugly
parts and recycling it for more than it's
worth.
But trust me on the sunscreen.
