        "To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 25 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written. My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:"

1.  Life isn't fair, but it's still good.
2.  When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3.  Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
5.  Pay off your credit cards every month.
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
8.  It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.
9. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
10. Everything can change in the blink of an eye.. But don't worry; God never blinks.
11.  Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
12.  It's never too late to have a happy childhood.
13. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
14. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
15.  Frame every so-called disaster with these words ''In five years, will this matter?".
16.  Always choose life.
17. Forgive everyone everything.
18. What other people think of you is none of your business.
19.  Time heals almost everything. Give time, time.
20. Believe in miracles.
21. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
22. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift.
23.  All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
24. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
25.  If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.
