THE BURIED LIFE: 20 Things I Should Have Known at... →
theburiedlife:
1. The world is trying to keep you stupid. From bank fees to interest rates to miracle diets, people who are not educated are easier to get money from and easier to lead. Educate yourself as much as possible for wealth, independence, and happiness.
2. Do not have faith in institutions to…

Me: “Boys, today is Justin Bieber’s birthday….”
7yr old Symon: “WHAT?!?! Justin Bieber is a real person?”
6yr old Sam: “Yeah, I used to think he was make-believe but as I’ve gotten older and my brain has gotten more wrinkles, I know that he is a real thing. Like Santa Clause.”

I feel really sad for myself.
I either need to rethink my deep V-necks, or give up my late night in-bed chocolate binging. #SignsThatMySocialLifeIsLacking

Your 20's
“Your 20’s are your ‘selfish’ years. It’s a decade to immerse yourself in every single thing possible. Be selfish with your time, and all the aspects of you. Tinker with shit, travel, explore, love a lot, love a little, and never touch the ground.”

More often than not...
I receive pick-up lines that start out,
“I heard you from across the bar…”
And not,
“I saw you from across the bar…”

Today is my day of birth. Today I am 23.
I awoke to a phone call from my grandma… “my Shelby girl… How old are you today? …And stilllllll single??”
22 had it’s ups and downs… But I have a feeling that 23 is going to be amazing.

Things I regret.
Giving ‘Women’s Health’ my email address.
“Banish Bra Fat!” and “Kiss That Muffin Top Goodbye!” are actual mail alerts that show up in hoards daily… Not pleasant. Excuse me while I delete you, and consume my dinner of mozzarella sticks and apple martinis.
“Curves are sexy. Have another piece of bread today.” -Now that is a subject...

I loathe speed bumps.
I cry in the greeting card aisle. Actual tears. Every time.
I prefer going to movies by myself.
I believe that love should feel like a song by The Eagles on a warm summer evening.
I know that there is nothing like a little heartbreak to remind yourself that you’re alive.
I’ll be 23 in one week, and I’ve realized that we never actually grow up as much as we once thought we...

Life doesn’t rhyme.
Life is poetry, not math.
All the world’s a stage
but the stage is a meditation mat.
You tilt your head back.
You breathe.
When your heart is broken you plant seeds in the cracks
and you pray for rain.
And you teach your sons and daughters
there are sharks in the water
but the only way to survive
is to breathe deep
and dive.

Nothing like a Justin Bieber documentary to make...
What’s that? Oh yeah, I sold out Madison Square Garden in 20 minutes when I was 17 too… 14 million followers? …Um, I’m getting there.
