Sprinkings of wisdom, part II

Call your family (especially your mom!) often.

Don't compare your life to others': You have no idea what their journey is all about.

Learn from the mistakes of others. You don't live long enough to make them all yourself.

Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

Try to make at least three people smile each day.

Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse.

-Philippians 4:8 The Message paraphrase
