Like it! Reminds me of the last page of the book Danny Champion of the World by Roald Dahl (that I recently read to my kids)

“A message To the children who have read this book. When you grow up and have children of your own, do please remember something important. A stodgy parent is no fun at all! What a child wants -and DESERVES- is a parent who is SPARKY!"

For fuck's sake try and enjoy life.

Bridgehouse

Be good. And if you can't be good, be good at it

Rocker

With Rights come Responsibilities.

Never ever drink and drive.

Keep your brain active - solve crossword puzzles, read books, play music.....

Never put off till tomorrow something you can avoid altogether

Don't ask for a day off when you need one, because if the answers  no you then can't pretend to be sick !

Remember at some point your gonna be sitting in a nursing home pretty much helpless and all you will have are your memories .... so you have to make as many decent ones as possible ..... take a few chances here and there

Enjoy yourself ………it's later than you think !

Unless you've done something to specifically deserve it no-one owes you anything.

I'd take issue with that, slightly.

I think you owe everyone courtesy until such time as they prove themselves unworthy of it.

Having recently started learning a language after sacking it off after school 20 years ago...

Try learning another language, then go to a country where they speak that language, then speak it when you're there.  It's excellent.

And I will go one step further and say beware the free lunch lest you get your just desserts.
