A dispassionate advice! Fire and Rain Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind.
The power of beauty and youth will understand once dried.
But trust me, in twenty years you'll look back at photos.
And in a way you can not imagine now.
Quante possibilità avevi di fronte
e che aspetto magnifico avevi!
Non eri per niente grasso come ti sembrava.
Non preoccuparti del futuro.
Oppure preoccupati ma sapendo che questo ti aiuta quanto masticare un chewing-gum per risolvere un'equazione algebrica.
I veri problemi della vita saranno sicuramente cose che non ti erano mai passate per la mente, di quelle che ti pigliano di sorpresa alle quattro di un pigro martedì pomeriggio.
Fa' una cosa ogni giorno che sei spaventato: canta!
Non essere crudele col cuore degli altri.
Non tollerare la gente who are reckless with yours.
Floss.
not waste time on jealousy: Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind.
The race is long and, ultimately, it's only with yourself.
Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults.
If we succeed in doing this, tell me how ...
Keep your old love letters,
Throw away your old bank statements.
Relax!
Do not feel guilty if you do not know what to do with your life.
The most interesting people I know at twenty-two did not know what to do with their lives. The most interesting forty
I know still do not know.
Get plenty of calcium.
Be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone
.
Maybe you'll marry, maybe not.
Maybe you'll have children, maybe not.
Maybe you'll divorce at forty. Perhaps
dance with her at the seventy-fifth wedding anniversary.
Whatever you do, do not congratulate yourself too much, or berate yourself either but
: your choices are half chance,
as those of anyone else.
Enjoy your body, use it
in all the ways you can,
without fear and without fear of what people think.
It 's the greatest instrument you'll ever have.
Dance!
Although you have nowhere to do it but your living room.
Read the directions, even if you do not follow.
Do not read beauty magazines
will only make you feel ugly.
Get to know your parents,
You never know when they'll be gone forever.
Be nice to your siblings,
are the best link with the past
and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.
Understand that friends come and go, but some
, the most valuable, will remain.
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and lifestyle, because the more
become older, you need the people you knew when you were young.
Live in New York for a while ', but leave before it makes you hard.
Live in California for a while ', but leave before it makes you soft.
Do not mess with your hair: if not, when you're forty, it will look eighty-five.
Be careful whose advice,
but be patient with those who supply it.
I consigli sono una forma di nostalgia.
Dispensarli è un modo di ripescare il passato dal dimenticatoio,
ripulirlo, passare la vernice sulle parti più brutte
e riciclarlo per più di quel che valga.
Ma accetta il consiglio... per questa volta.
