Here's my advice:
Hike when it’s sunny and
drink lots of water. Hand-write letters. Sit in a café and enjoy the
atmosphere. Forgive quickly. Listen attentively. Live honestly. Revisit your
childhood and enjoy art by going outside the lines. If you don’t own a library
card, get one. Use it. If you hear a song and you like it, dance. Always
remember that blowing bubbles takes less effort than typing on a keyboard. Let
your running shoes kiss the sidewalk more than once every three months. Talk is
cheap. Action begins with you taking the first step. Never forget that we were
made to fellowship with others. ‘X’ out of facebook, quit watching Justin
Bieber on youtube, hold the emails, and realize that you were born without a cell
phone attached to your limbs. People are valuable, invest in them. Hearts are
fragile, don’t mess with them. Don’t take God lightly. His watch doesn’t run by
our biological clock. Take a step out of your comfort zone and get
uncomfortable. Don’t rush life, savor it. Make friends with the elderly,
they’re wiser than you. Your brain is larger than you realize, be open to
learning. Travel the world. It’s bigger than you think. And never, ever, take
the air your breath for granted. Life can vanish in an instant.
