I got some real, not funny at all serious advice for everyone..especially the younger ones...protect your ears...too many people destroy their ears before they really learn to use them.
The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound, purpose‐larger‐than‐the‐self kind of understanding.

I seem to remember that and believe I participated in that discussion. It still bears mentioning often...as it is too much of daily life is on the brink of too loud. Fortunately my ears have remianed in good shape...but that's not the same for some of my friends I grew up with...Meffy wrote:Hink: I posted a whole treatise on ear protection but it probably got deleted or archived in one of the periodic OT pogroms. (No great loss!)

NOTE: This is not advice just a wake up call.
Don't live your life by some wise quote, saying, or any of these posts. Don't live your life in a book. Don't live according to some preconceived or limiting mindframe. These are the very things that distract you and blur your mind from your true self.
Just live YOUR life.

That bit on the shampoo bottle where it says "lather, rinse, repeat"... don't take it literally. And yes, everyone should follow this advice. Period.

About the only piece of advice I've found worth remembering so far has been
"never regret something you did, regret only what you didn't do"
Most other advice I've heard I've stacked to the same pile with religions - fairytales for adults.

As per my sig... It aint what you do, its how soon you can do it again.
An idiot on Set Theory:
"In some cases there is an object called red that contains everything that is red. In much the same way a pot is a plate."
