This isn't really a fact of life but I've found it it to be true anyway, alan watts says it in one of his talks when he talks about what (he thinks) life's all about ,"It was a musical thing and you were supposed to dance"

I find it comforting because I'm always worrying about the future and what I'm supposed to be doing with my life but it doesn't really matter as long as I enjoy it, sorry to get so philosophical AH bros.

I like this but what if life only plays music I don't like or what if the volume is so low, I can't hear it?

Everything in life that you think is bad and will never end does. Accept that and realise that for most of us in our lifes there is more good than bad.

People can change. It is only the negative perceptions we place on these people that don't.

Stand up for yourself. People always give the "not worth it" shtick. It always is. Head held high, self pride and dignity are all our rights in life to have, don't let someone cheapen that. (obviously this does not apply to dangerous physical situations. Best advice: get outta dodge)

Do what you want in the spectrum of reality. If you want to be a free spirit and live in the woods go do it. Don't complain when you're low on money and that. If you're unhappy in your job leave.

Don't listen to your parents about the future. That's yours and you do whatever you want with it. If all they want to do is see you happy. Then they'll let you go be happy.

Sitting down and doing nothing is one of lifes greatest pleasures. Pure freedom. It's not a waste of time if you enjoy it. I know I do.

Never assume anyone you think to be in a lower job (cleaner,binman etc.) is stupid. A lot of these people are smarter then you will ever be. Most people can read. Just because you decided for college and he/she didn't mind or wanted to do that work means nothing.

People only care for the "good old days" when their lifes are crap. So don't have a crap life. Go out and do the things you want to do. Who says the fun ever has to stop?

I give you an A+ good sir. A marriage proposal is in the mail.

They can afford to have public toilets in those countries?

I was initially surprised, and then I remembered it wasn't the ancient Greeks that invented the sewage system and the outdoor toilets, it was the ancient Romans if I remember correctly from my first year history class... Yep-

Meanwhile, back in Ireland, some parts of the country are still having to buy bottled water, 2,000 years later.

I really wish the Romans had come to Ireland.

Now everyone is thinking of a little green pointy eared guy saying "Die once you do only".

If you put your ear to a persons thigh you'll hear "What the fúck are you doing?"

You need only compare vast swathes of modern day sub-Saharan Africa to ancient Rome for a similar comparison.

Ya or if your doing it with a lass doggy style, use wipes so there will be no stench, this is actually important as the smell of crap during sex is a big turnoff.

Put Kleenex in your golf bag if you play enough golf, you will at some stage need to crap in the woods.

After 20 years plus of playing I have yet to experience or see that.

I would say on the golf theme that a provisional is almost guaranteed to be a perfect shot though

There are 3 things I don't mind spending money on:

good shoes
a good bed
and a good chair.

If you're not in 1 of them, you're in the other.
