Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of the Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio ..
“To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me.
It is the most requested column I’ve ever written.
My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:
1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5. Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It’s more healing than crying alone.
8. It’s OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
11. Make peace with your past so it won’t screw up the present.
12. It’s OK to let your children see you cry.
13. Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn’t be in it.
15.. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don’t worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath It calms the mind..
17. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful.
18. Whatever doesn’t kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It’s never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don’t take no for an answer.
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple.
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words :’In five years, will this matter?’
27. Always choose life..
28. Forgive everyone everything..
29. What other people think of you is none of your business.
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
32. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles.
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn’t do.
35. Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative — dying young.
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.
41. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
42. The best is yet to come…
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
44. Yield.
45. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.
about 8 years ago i wanted to help out a band i really loved called Lance’s Hero so i pressed 2000 copies of their EP “The Only Motion That Matters.” Unfortunately, they broke up a few weeks after it came out and the singer and bass player went on to join Say Anything. Rob Hitt took the CDs to try to sell them through his label, I surrender http://bit.ly/skXAMd. But after all this time, he needs to get rid of them. It seemed like a shame to me to see them get thrown in the trash. After all, it was the only release on my “label” Science is a Liar. Feels like a little part of history disappearing. If you want the whole inventory for free, email rob info@isurrenderrecords.com

We are all afraid of being sell outs.
“Sell out” is one of those labels anyone who ever attempts to do anything creative is afraid of. At least a little bit. (You may be inherently more confident than I am and immune to this fear.)
It’s a barb people will throw at you sometimes when whatever it…

“The most beautiful emotion we can experience is the mysterious. It
is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of all true art
and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer
wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead, a snuffed out
candle. To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there
is something that our minds cannot grasp, whose beauty and sublimity
reaches us only indirectly: this is religiousness. In this sense,
and in this sense only, I am a devoutly religious man”
in 1930, Rabbi Herbert Goldstein telegrammed Einstein:
“Do you believe in God? Stop. Answer period. 50 words. Stop”
Einstein, to the consternation of some of his fellow scientists had referred to himself as “religious.” The above is Einstein’s response.
