There is no real secret to life so do what you love and love what you do. Music helps, especially the music inside your heart that you hear inside your head. Never, ever let them take away the music in your heart. That’s your song. Avoid doctors and lawyers if you can and lie about your pain, even to yourself. No one likes a griper, not even God. / / Oh yeah, learn to forget, it makes it easier to forgive. What you don’t remember doesn’t hurt you. If you were supposed to keep seeing what’s behind you, your eyes would be in the back of your head. If you just can’t let it go, talk about it to someone, or write about it so you can start living in the present once again. / / Smile and laugh a lot. It takes less energy and keeps you from looking like an idiot. When folks see you smiling they think you know something they don’t and avoid burdening you with their negativity. / / If you do all the above you probably won’t live any longer but you’ll be happier, so it’s worth a shot.
