Some Advice...

For my "kids" out there, here's some advice:

- Never fear pain. Pain will come,and it will come harder if you keep avoiding it. The bitch chases after you all the time, so beter take it in small doses. Embrace it when it comes, cry it out, then start walking away.

- Watch "Mulholland Drive" at least once in your life. That'll be your guide of how NOT to love someone and what not to do to those who'd kill for you.
- On the note of love: don't ever be with someone you wouldn't give your life for. Also, never be with someone who wouldn't give their life for you.

- Never give everything for those who wouldn't give anything for you.

- In love, you ought to be a priority. If you're with someone s a second option,you're wasting your time.

- Never do drugs. They won't erase your past, nor will they make it go away. They only waste your present and ruin your future.

- Get completely wasted (drink until you forget your name and where you are) at least once in your life. Try never doing it again. If you do, ALWAYS be accompanied by someone who'll help you out.

- We were gifted with intuition. If it says "no", listen to it.

- Casual sex is great, yes. But it can't start to compare with making love. Try the latter more often.

- Don't put your friends and couple over your carreer, and don't put your carreer over them. You never know when both will end.

- Don't "forget and forgive". Forgiving means nothing if you forget.

- Keep in mind what happened, bear your scars proudly, and everytime you look at them, smile. In the end, all wounds heal,and all scars teach you a lesson.

- Stay in touch with at least one friend from your childhood. They'll help you remember how little you've really changed in essence, and will always point out how far you've made it in life.

- Don't have children for nannies to take care of. Have children when you know you can be with them when they need you. They are YOUR kids, your parents already had to raise you.

- When there's true love, marriage isn't needed. Keep it in mind.

- Don't be impatient. Live today to build the future you want, not just to get there.

- Don't say "I love you" if you don't really feel it. The symptoms are:

. Butterflies in your stomach.
. Miraculous boosts of energy when you see/hear/read/know about that person.

. Believing every word that comes out of their mouth, because, how could they lie to you?

. Smiling like stupid every time you notice something that reminds you of them.

. Smiling like stupid just because you remembered them.

. You'd give up everything without second thoughts or regrets just to see them again.

. You want to be fine. You want to be happy. You want to live and breathe so they can smile with you.

.You have no doubt of how (everything great and awesome) you are. Why else would they be there?

And the last piece of advice in this list:

People are just people. They come, they go...you're not them,and they don't make you. It hurts sometimes, and they hurt sometimes. But we need them.

Never look back. Never go back. Smile always. Cry until you can't cry anymore. Run, trip, get back up and keep running. Even if you never reach the sunset or the stars,just moving towards them makes you feel you can.

Who knows? Maybe you will...
