pearls of wisdom

(first of all, why are they called "pearls"?)

i love advice. mmm...let me take that back-i love good advice. and the fun part about good advice is most times, people give it without even thinking about it!
like...

always say "please" and "thank you" - its just good manners.
dont let your choices make you; you make your choices.
when you figure out "you," the rest of life will fall into place.
like attracts like. (ie. happy attracts happy and sad attracts sad)
if its right, it just works; its not a struggle to make it work.
the customer is always right.
once a cheater, always a cheater.
people are like puzzle pieces. if 2people are meant to be together, theyll just fit.if theyre the wrong 2pieces,you cant make them fit, no matter how many times you try to mash them together.
find your joy and incorporate it into your life as much and as often as possible.
make the most of your today because you might not always have an extra tomorrow.
always do your very best in everything.
theyre called "exes" for a reason.
tip whenever you can, and remember to tip well. if the service was excellent, try and tip really, really well!
patience is a virtue. (im HATING on this one at the moment)
never be ashamed of how you feel; your feelings arent meant to be rational, thats why theyre feelings.
at the end of the day, be ok with the way things turned out.
theres a big difference between hearing and listening.
actions speak worlds louder than words.
never settle for just "alright;"always strive for the best.
the universe puts out "signs" for a reason, but its up to you to listen to'em.
wake up every day expecting good things to happen, and they will.
nothings ever really that bad...just think, it could always be worse!
go with your gut-your instinct/impression is usually right (especially for girls. um, hello? woman's intuition?!).
when you fall in love, dont hold back because when you give him your heart, youll get his in return.
never be conceited about anything-there will always be someone smarter, prettier, richer (etc) than you.
the grass is always greener on the other side so learn to be happy with your side of the fence =)
hold out for mr right, not mr right now.
everything, everything, everything happens for a reason.
smile.
as corny and cheesy as it may seem, try to live life by the golden rule (of reciprocity). that way, the bachi gods cant attack you. and believe me, the bachi gods are out there!

i know theres more, but thats the best i can do right now...sharing is caring! happy days!!
