advice

Mom sent me a card yesterday with these words:

“ 1. the path is not straight
2. mistakes need not be fatal

3. people are more important than achievements or possessions

4. be gentle with your parents.

5. never stop doing what you care most about

6. learn to use a semi-colon

7. you will find love

Numbers one, three, and seven resonate the most at the moment. Which do you think makes the greatest advice?
