As an older person, I am often tempted to give young folks advice, so that they may benefit from my many years of experience (mistakes, I mean). Even though I know that people can't learn from others' mistakes, and have to go out and make their own versions. I know this because I was never able to learn from my parents' advice (which explains a lot about some early boyfriends).
It's sad. That's why human civilization is stalled, struggling with the same issues, generation after generation. Sigh.
But if I were to give advice, it would go like this:
Never buy a horse named Nipper.
Never pick the puppy called Crybaby.
Don't take the cat named Shit Cat.
There.
What advice do you have to offer the world?
"If it sounds to GOOD to be true..It is!"
ReplyDelete"There are two kinds of people in the world, spares & flats..(this was my grandpa's saying)"
"Don't ever do anything you couldn't admit to your mom"
"Why should he buy the cow, when the milk is free?" (from my grandmom)
