Mine:

  1. Learn a second language and keep up with the language your parents speak. You will regret being a brat about not wanting to speak this language especially as your family members pass.
  2. The only opinions about you that really matter are from the people you respect and who respect you back
  3. Being a kind humble person, who leads their political convictions with curiosity and not self righteousness is important. As that one person said: “I am no hero and neither are you.”
  4. Don’t throw out your old media (mix cds, tapes, records, photos, zinee, etc) because you think they’re embarrassing. They either will not be embarrassing later or they will become expensive and you can tell them for mad bucks.

    When I was born, there were 4 billion people in the world.

    There are now over 8 billion.

    That means in just my lifetime, there are twice as many humans on Earth.

    I 100% feel the planet is over populated, and that it is a major factor in issues we face today.

    I absolutely think people should be encouraged not to have children.

      There is plenty of space and resources to go around. The problem is the 1% dumping all waste in the ocean so they can buy more boats.
