50 lessons of life

Regina Brett is a well known american columnist. The single most popular column ever written by Regina was "50 Life Lessons," written for The Plain Dealer when she turned 50 years old in 2006. Actually she found her fame for this column. I choose my most favourite ones and at end put link for original 50.

  • Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
  • You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
  • Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
  • The most important sex organ is the brain.
  • Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?"
  • What other people think of you is none of your business.
  • Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
  • Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
  • Your children get only one childhood. Make it memorable.
  • Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
  • If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
  • All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
  • No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
  • If you don't ask, you don't get.

All 50 here
