I am sleepy. I need to working right now, but I knew if I didn’t take the time to do this post right now, I’d forget. And I’m trying to make this a daily and automated habit, so… Here’s a random list of things I’ve learned, but learned too late.
You can call almost any company you pay money to and get them to reduce your bill if you ask nicely enough and don’t give up. It might take a while, but it always works.
If the pizza box has grease stains on it, it’s not recyclable.
Cats can have anal gland problems just like dogs do.
Most people respect folks who don’t relinquish their power and stand firmly in their principles. They may not like you or agree with you. But they’ll respect you.
You cannot make someone love you just by being nice or hanging around or doing kind things for them or loving them first. You also cannot make someone love you the way you want to loved. They have to do it themselves, or you have to keep it pushin’.
If you need help, you have to ask for it.
You’re supposed to fill up your car tires with air routinely. (I do not, but you’re supposed to.) You don’t have to pay to do it at the gas station — they just want you to.
Most advice we receive about dieting, nutrition, and healthy eating is not only wrong — it further damages our metabolisms and abilities to eat healthy.
Most things in life that make us better, happier, healthier, kinder, more responsible, and more whole are really fucking hard. Growing up is really fucking hard. Healing is really fucking hard. Taking ownership of your life is really fucking hard. Choosing yourself is really fucking hard. Following your dreams is really fucking hard. Admitting when you’re wrong is really fucking hard. Backing your shit up with actions is really fucking hard. Staying engaged and conscientious with the world and communities around you is really fucking hard.
The key to healthy, clear skin is MOISTURIZER. Not exfoliant. Not cleanser. Keep yo’ shit moisturized.
That is all for now.
