    If you had the opportunity to share your wisdom with the world in a fortune cookie kind of style, what words that may echo through the ages would you offer the masses? Be it the result of your own experience, or shared information, they say that knowledge is power, so let's try and power a small clock with this thread.


    For me : Never try to eat anything that is bigger than your own head.


    Any insights you would share with us all?

    Yea they can.

    At the end of your life when you number your days you will never say "I should have worked more overtime".

    You're never fully right, only not so wrong.

    The day you give up learning about the world, you're not a part of the world. The day you stop learning about yourself, you're not part of life.

    They always look better after a few drinks.:D

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    No they can't
    Due to the construction of a dogs neck and spine, it is physically impossible for them to look upwards. In order for a dog to look up at something high they must assume the sitting position"

    I have a bit of paper stuck to my bathroom mirror that reads, in capital letters: 'OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS OF ME ARE NONE OF MY BUSINESS'.

    I read it every morning. I find it puts me in a positive frame of mind for the day. Not giving a toss about other peoples perceptions is something I experience as an emotionally healthy state. It's very liberating; I'd advise anyone to stick that up on the mirror - seriously! :)

    I agree, but I don't think I need the reminder. It comes naturally to me.

    Sticking it on the mirror might be a little extreme, but I definitely share your view. You take shit off nobody, and their drivel is just that. Drivel.

    Whatever is meant for you won't pass you by - learnt by hard experience. Also, that good can happen from seemingly bad things, you just have to look on the bright side of life.
