Remember the more ratchid you are the more famous you'll be



Day 23, Thursday: Things you've learned that school won't teach you


So, what has life taught me:

Life has taught me that the more ratchid you are the more famous you'll be. People love to watch others whose lives are a train wreck. They're gonna talk about you anyway. "Give em' something to watch."

Life has taught me to always show kindness towards others. You've never and you might be the only positive thing that person encounters all day.

Life has taught me that "the me you see is the me i'll be" Stop trying to be like everyone else because they're already taken. 

Life has taught me that Please, thank you, yes ma'am and no sir will get you a long way in life.

Life has taught me to take water more and sweet tea less. 

Life has taught me that life moves on. There is always gonna be someone worse off than you. Don't wallow in your self pity.

Life has taught me that if I don't leave my house by 7:33 am, I will be stuck behind a John Deere Tractor and the 7:53 train that runs through town on my morning commute to work.

Life has taught me that it's not what you know but who you know. Always do your best and never burn bridges along the way. You never know when you'll need someone later in life. 

Life has taught me that Texas will always be hot and to just deal.

Life has taught me that I'm stronger than I could have ever imagined and worth far more than I could have ever dreamed. Life says, "Aleshea don't settle for anything less"

Day 23 of 31 is not as ratchid as life.
Yay Lisette
