I know, not politically correct.
Things not taught in school but important things I learned as a mere child
(To live a happy, healthy life)

Honor your father and mother.

Tell your spouse and kids you love them.

Don’t spit into the wind!

Never jump off tall buildings.

Never eat raw pork!

Never have sex outside of Marriage!

Never try to have sex with the same sex – it would be an exercise in futility.
(You have heard of trying to put a square peg in a round hole?)

Honesty is not only the best policy – It is the only policy that works!

Pay your bills on time!

Wash your hands before eating – you don’t know where they may have been.

Don’t follow the crowd – the crowd is usually wrong!

Many “experts” aren’t.

Don’t try to find happiness in a bottle or in pills or in powder or in sex or in money.

A lot of money and a hot car doesn’t equal happiness.

Be content with what you have.

Don’t covet what your neighbors have, you may get it!

Don’t try to keep up with the Jones.
They can’t afford their life style either.

Fear God and keep His commandments.
Love God because He loved you before the world was made.

Life is like a game of “solitaire” – some games can’t be won,
Some games can’t be lost. But some, seemingly impossible, can be won with skill patients.
