Lessons Learned

Give second chances freely, third ones carefully, fourth ones rarely, fifth ones never.

Work out every day--until something burns and your heart is racing.

Take a picture a day--there's always something worth remembering that you're likely to forget.

Talk to someone new every day--always something new to discover/learn.

The more selfish a person is, the less they are able to love anyone including themselves. One loves freely or not at all.
