Don't date because you are desperate. Don't marry because you are miserable. Don't have kids because you think your genes are superior. Don't separate because you think it's fashionable. Don't drink because you have troubles. Don't gamble because you think winning is inevitable. Don't philander because you think you’re irresistible. Don't associate with people you can't trust. Don't cheat. Don't lie. Don't pretend. Don't dictate because you are smarter. Don't demand because you are stronger. Don't sleep around because you think you are old enough and know better. Don't hurt your kids because loving them is harder. Don't sell yourself, your family, or your ideals. Don't stagnate. Don't regress. Don't live in the past. Time can't bring anything or anyone back. Don't put your life on hold for possibly Mr/Mrs Right. Don't throw your life away on absolutely Mr Wrong because your biological clock is ticking. Don't abandon your responsibilities but don't overdose on duty. Don't live life recklessly without thought and feeling for your family. Don't commit when you are not ready. Don't keep others waiting needlessly. Don't be afraid. Don't let the moment pass. Don't lose your capacity to love. 
DO Learn a new skill. DO Find a new friend. DO Start a new career. Sometimes, there is no race to be won. Only a price to be paid for some of life's hastier decisions. To terminate your loneliness, reach out to the homeless. To feed your nurturing instincts, care for the needy.To fulfill your parenting fantasies, get a puppy don't bring another life into this world for all the wrong reasons. To make yourself happy, pursue your passions and be the best of what you can be. Simplify your life. Take away the clutter. DO Get rid of destructive elements - especially abusive backstabbing "friends", nasty habits & dangerous liaisons. Be true to yourself. Go on that trip. Don't postpone it. Do what you have to, even at society's scorn. Write poetry. Love Deeply. Walk barefoot. Dance with wild abandon. Cry at the movies. Take care of yourself-don't wait for someone to take care of you. You light up your life. You drive yourself to your destination. No one completes you - except YOU. It is true that life does not get easier with age. It only gets more challenging. Pursue your passions. Live your dreams. Don't lose faith in God. Don't grow old. Just grow YOU!
