.......and drink........I live and I learn.

Hug your loved ones as often as you can.

Don't hold back telling those you love that you love them.

Live by your words.

Smoke your best cigars first or someone else will when you are gone.

Drink your best booze, first, always.

Eat filet if you can and feed the burger to your dog.

Don't put anything off.

Treat yourself to toys.

Share with friends as giving and sharing beats being alone.

Find a cause you believe in and lend a hand.

Don't trip over the small stuff.

Learn from yesterday but don't dwell on the past as you will otherwise miss the present.

Live like there is no tomorrow but be prepared if you do.

It is much more fun to laugh, even if at yourself.

When you wake up, even if it hurts to roll out of bed, be glad you still can.

If some family member has a stick up their a$$, help them by getting it out.

Best yet, don't waste 50 years waiting to figure this out.

Carlos, Those are very true words!

I think Carlos just plumed.

Just really happy where I am.
Seeing many young ones on this board, hoping to share what I have learned in my years on this great world.
As a parent and grandparent, you hope you can guide others but I recognize life is about learning on your own.

Good for you Carlos! Makes me smile.

Definitally some wise words.

Sage advice well said.

Post of the day Carlos!

FYI to everyone....

1.) Carlos likes Glenlivet.
2.) I have his address.

That is all.

I'm afraid that should have been on the list too. We heard all of this when we were young. Unfortunately, we had to endure the losses, regrets, heartaches and mistakes for it become real.

It's always great to see you Carlos and love your post!

The wise man is wise. The sad part is I probably won't learn those lessens until I'm 50 'cause I have to do things the hard way. :-) :-) :-)

:-) :-) It's amazing the things we figure out when we pass 50 and are standing there looking down the other side.
[Reply]

I realize it beats the alternative.
[Reply]

Oddly, I have multiple bottles of The Glenlivet :-)

My goodness Patrick - didn't read what he wrote. He said drink the good stuff!!!
[Reply]

I didn't know that! I have seen him drink rum but never scotch, interesting. :-)
