What’s the best advice you have ever received?

A few years ago a nutritionist said to me “do yourself a favor, if you’re craving something, don’t deprive yourself. If you want pizza, have pizza, but find a healthier option. Grab a lean cuisine pizza. Instead of suppressing it until you end up binging and eating a whole Pizza Hut pizza by yourself”
Now, actually trying to lose weight, these words stick in my head.

    You can't be reasonable with an unreasonable person

    My Mom always told me to find a love and make it a career. To be independent and not rely on a man. Then she told me to have a back up plan because life doesn’t always pan out the way we had hoped.
    That is all very very true. Your mom is a wise woman!

    Keep your ears open and your mouth shut. You'll learn a lot more that way, said my dad.

    Not sure if this was actually advice or a way of shutting me up as a child.
    Well it’s true! But I does sound like a very dad tool to use

    *kitten* or get off the pot.

    Don't *kitten* where you eat.

    *kitten* happens.

    If it smells like *kitten*, and it looks like *kitten*, it is *kitten*.

    Come to think of it, all the best advice I've been given involves the word *kitten*.

    😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    They use a tabo, a communal bucket of water with a little hand bucket. You pour some water on your backside then use your hand to clean yourself. Oh did I mention most cr's don't have hot water or soap at the sink? It's no wonder theres so many billboards advertising immodium.

    Well then, I can see how bringing your own tp would be very helpful!

    'If it hurts when you do that, stop doing that.'

    A wise woman told me that, this tiny piece of advice applies to many things in life.
