Always trust their instincts. Years ago, while I was walking my dogs in a park, I stop to talk to a friend. A man approaches trying to get close to us. My dogs are all friendly, but they all raise hackles and bare teeth at this guy. I don't know what's going on so I tell him to back off before he gets bit and he leaves in a huff. I'm confused about what just happened until my friend tells me that that guy has been to jail many times for all types of abuse, including animal abuse.

From watching other couples:
If you're in a toxic relationship where you both fight constantly, have all sorts of monetary problems, infidelity issues, and deep-down despise each other, please...for the love of God...do not have a baby together !!!
No, it will not "make things better".
No, it will not make a dead-beat idiot of a person "step up and take responsibility" all of a sudden.
All it's going to do is add an impressionable little mind to the mix where they're stuck between two dumb-f***s making it's life a living hell all because they were stupid and selfish.

I use to do it , don't know why. We was in NY, rent a car drove to Canada. on the way back my friend said we need to get some sleep. check-in in a motel, unpack, throw the car-key in the trunk. Next morgning my friend asked for the key. After being yelled at, I went to ask the reception if there's a AAA or locksmith. "You can call the police, they can help...happens couple times a year". Cops came. Cop- "Sign this" Me-"what's that?" Cop- "Permission to break the window." Me-"But it's a rental with no insurance." Cop-"just kidding, just a consense that we can unlook your car." After the key was out my frirend asked for a picture of me with the cops.

Final score:

WillowRoseL 1 year ago
So true! My husband and I are big believers in trusting your gut. I liken it to a threat detection algorithm running in the background. People are much more aware of their surroundings than people think. A lot of the raw data that we process is done subconsciously. Our brain, the marvel processor that it is, will analyze that data and alert us of any potential threats via "that gut feeling that something is not right." Always trust your gut - if something doesn't feel right, especially if there is no observable reason for it, trust your intuition and adapt accordingly. It might be nothing, or it might save your life.

FAST stroke protocol learn it save a life:
Face- uneven movement, drooping or change in appearance to the left and right side?
Arms - Unable to lift arms the same height when they normally could
Speech- Is speech slurred, jumbled or absent?
Time- if you suspect a stroke call 911/999 immediately the “Golden Hour” is when treatment is most effective.
As a health care professional I can confidently say, we would rather attend a call of a false stroke than it be too late to help. As with any medical emergency ALWAYS call if you’re not sure.

The American Civil War ended in England. Specifically, in Rock Ferry, a subtown of Birkenhead in Merseyside, over the River Mersey from Liverpool (actually it was in Cheshire at the time but that's not important).
See, in those days it was a very slow process getting messages to ships at sea. So the naval skirmishes continued for some time after the Confederacy's formal surrender.
The captain of the last Confederate battleship refused to surrender to the Union navy, so instead he sailed to Rock Ferry, where he surrendered to the Royal Navy. Thus the American Civil War ended on a different continent, in a country that was officially neutral in the war.

Advice from my father, a retired 25-year New York City Police Officer. NEVER TALK TO COPS!! Be polite and talk to them during a traffic stop, sure. But if your cuffed up and on the your way to the slammer SHUT YOUR PIE HOLE!! "I want a lawyer" is all you say. and no "we would like you to come down to the station to talk". Don't do it, if it can't be avoided show up with a lawyer. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AND EXERCISE THEM. you are never going to talk your way out of trouble, talking to cops and you are digging your grave.

When it comes to my job, regardless of occupation or setting, don't ask about a co-worker's personal life. If that person wanted you to know, that person would have told you by now.

This is not true at all. The ability to read the people around you and understand at what level to communicate with them is not a difficult skill. Sure, you can choose to keep your head down and focus on your work, but you can very well miss out on a great friendship that would last a lifetime. If everybody had your attitude, nobody would tell anyone else anything about their personal life and everybody would simply be working robots with no relevant bonds between each other that help solve conflicts that are bound to happen in a work environment.

My grandma taught me how she cares for her cast iron pans. It's a little different than your advice. Only wash it if you have to, usually you can just wipe it clean with a paper towel (they really are the best non-stick pans). If you do have to wash it, dry it off, oil it well and then re-season it in the oven or stove top before you put it away. Anyway, that is her method and I use it and her cast iron pans to this day.

The best thing my mother taught me (about knitting, but I've applied it to everything I've learned) is that I only need to learn "one stitch at a time". Rather than fret that I didn't know how to knit a sweater, she told me that I only need to learn the FIRST stitch, and forget about the 2nd one until I get to it. That helped me RELAX about learning a new skill. I break learning down into tiny steps and focus only on the step I'm on.

When trying to figure out why something is broken, take a look at the last thing you messed with. Usually it is the cause of the malfunction.
My father told me that at 16, when I was working on my car. I had replaced the carb, and was trying to get it started. He found me monkeying with the timing. Of course, he used profanity in place of "messed with". He rarely used swear words, so it stuck in my brain. Now every time I am troubleshooting something, I hear his voice say "What was the last thing you f***ed with."

The day of the test, our teacher offered a verbal one-state test. If the student got it right, A+. If the student got it wrong, he failed the test. I was the only one to take the deal. 49 out of 50 was excellent odds. Guess what state the teacher asked me the capitol of. Just guess.

Opportunities don't come knocking-you need to go and look for them. Sometimes they do, but you'll find infinitely more opportunities if you actually try to to look for them.
No matter how much you argue with or feel annoyed by your sibling/s, never, ever disrespect or put them down in from of others. Once you insult them in front of others, it gives them a sort of free pass to then disrespect them as well. Leave then scolding for home when there aren't as many outsiders.

First thing would be to love yourself and learn your self-worth. Never settle.
Don't change who you are for a partner as well as don't think that you are going to make someone else change for the better. Like staying in a toxic relationship for way too long or having an affair and they leave that person to be with you instead, doesn't mean that they won't do the same and cheat on you.
Just because someone is family/related to you does not mean that they automatically should have your trust or respect.
I personally do not trust anyone 100% but I usually start off with minimal trust until you either earn more over time or do something to break the trust.
I've been hurt the most by my family and this helped me learn that you can't depend on or trust anyone but yourself and even then I sometimes don't trust myself completely lol.
Lastly don't always judge a book by its cover or a person by what others say or think of them. Take it all in with a grain of salt but form your own opinion/thoughts and you never know who you may connect with.

Three pieces of advice my dad gave me:
1) "B******t works fine in prayer meeting, but ain't worth a damn in bear meeting." (Translation: you can shuck and jive your way only so far, until you're on the spot to perform what you bragged about.)
2) "A hard head makes a soft backside." (Translation: pride goes before a fall, and some people have to learn that the hard way.)
3) The best lesson is a bought one." No translation needed for this one. Unfortunately, this has applied to my life on more than a few occasions. I'm happy to say that I've gotten a little quicker on the uptake.
