★ Everybody should get 4 weeks of summer vacation. Period. Time to relax, hang out with friends, collect your thoughts.
★ There should be an elf that makes coffee (juuust right) in the morning and serves you the first cup in bed.
★ Certain things just suck. There’s no way to sugar-coat them. The end of the weekend is one of them.
★ It’s amazing to me how some people think they can just get away with all kinds of stuff. But let it be known, karma is a bitch. Eventually it’ll bite you in your derrière. Just FYI.
★ I cannot help but think that ice-cream is one of the best inventions on this planet.
★ I believe in a whole lot of gray. Not everything is black and white and sometimes I wish people would not assume that there is nothing in between those two extremes.
★ I tend to over-think. That’s an irrefutable fact. If that waste of brain power actually got you somewhere, that would be great.
★ Continuous little gestures are so much more important than big one time statements.
★ Everybody should at least write one hand-written note to someone important each month. (Save the U.S. Postal Service! But don’t just write because of that. Write because it’s in your heart.)
★ If everybody would just stop and think before they talk and act, this planet would be a much friendlier place.
★ A kid’s smile makes everything better.
★ Don’t do unto others what you would not want other to do unto you. A good motto to live by.
What’s true for you?

September 8, 2011 at 7:00 am“Continuous little gestures are so much more important than big one time statements.” – SO true.
A kid’s smile does make everything better – and so do a baby’s giggles :)

September 8, 2011 at 7:43 amBe kind. To those you love and to strangers too.
A smile spread around the world can brighten so many days!

September 8, 2011 at 9:52 am“Continuous little gestures are so much more important than big one time statements.” – This is so true and I have to say that I’m really bad at sticking to it in my own life. :/

September 8, 2011 at 11:45 amMany truths here. I always over think everything. Like ridiculously. My fiance is always telling me to just make a decision. This is a very hard thing to fix.
I don’t know about a kid’s smile making everything better, but my dog makes everything better. EVERYTHING. I don’t know what I’d do without her!

September 8, 2011 at 4:35 pmYes, I’d love 4 weeks of vacation! I get jealous all the time in the summer because most of my friends are teachers so they’re always getting together during the week.
And over-thinking sucks, I do that a lot too!

September 8, 2011 at 6:02 pmI have been trying to get better at writing hand-written notes but it’s always something that falls to the bottom of my to-do list and never gets done. I need to put more effort forth in this.
I love this list.

Amanda
September 8, 2011 at 9:25 pmI just heartily concur with so much of this list!

September 10, 2011 at 5:56 pmThese are spot on! I would love a house elf, who I would treat very well, lo fetch me tea in the morning. It’d make waking up so mich easier.
