STUFF I LEARNED THIS CHRISTMAS

1. Peanut Brittle breaks teeth!

2. 70 years old is too old to be doing swan dives onto the concrete!

3. Words meant to be 'helpful' sound 'hateful to those hearing them.  Don't speak them!  Ever!

4. Painful memories buried for years can and will come back with enough force to buckle your knees.

5. Your relationships with people are the most important things.  Do all you can to keep them positive!

6. The thought and feeling behind the gift is the important thing -- not the gift itself.

7. Cherish health and life. Be thankful for it every moment. It can be gone in a second.

8. People are good.  They do want to be of help.
