I've just reminisce Nickelback's "If Today Was Your Last Day". There was one special line in the song that I love most. That's the beginning part.
"My best friend gave me the best advice; each day's a gift and not a given right."
The other way around; I'm the one who gave it to my friend long before we departed ways. I don't quite get it why she still keeps it but doing the opposite thing. She mentioned to me before that she did appreciate that tip but I don't think she's living with it. She's still guilty being herself living in slums in Tondo and not making ways in how to make her situation better. But I don't know; it's till her choice.
I always have this "freedom" mindset and make the most out of yourself; being thankful and share blessings to others. How about you? What advice do you usually give to your friends and loved-ones and why.
BTW; I'm bad at love advice; LOL ^_^-) Happy mylotting about your best practices :)

I've recieved so much advice. I'm not sure where to start haha This might be a bit cheesy but the advice I give my friends is "don't waste time because time is something you won't get back" I used to have a friend that would party or go clubbing every weekend and he would wake up the next day at a random persons house or with a bad hangover and wouldn't be able to go to work or study for his tests so he didn't do too well inschool his GPA dropped drastically and he finally quit school because his parent sstopped paying for it. Granted he is trying to get his life together now but I remember asking him what he thought he could be doing with his time instead of going to the clubs and drinking and he said make money. He now has a job as a limo driver. I know it's not a prestigious position but it's better than where he was before. My parents always told me to work hard,study hard and help others in any way you can and when I was younger I didn't really understand but now that I'm older I understand.

First I have to tell you this is my favorite song. So much so that it is my ringtone.
moving on to my best advice, treat people the way you want to be treated. offer someone a hand up, change the world one random act of kindness at a time. I live it and think that the world would be a better place if we all did. Compassion is free to give.
Have a great day.

The best advice that I got from my friend is "Live like you're dying." For me this is the best advice because there were times in my life that I regreted because I didn't do want I wanted to do. You shouldn't be afraid of what you want to do because we only live once. Live life with no regrets. When there's still time, do what enjoys you.

My favorite advice from a friend is... If you love someone, set him free. If he comes back, he's yours. If he doesn't, he never was yours. True enough? On the other hand, my favorite advice to a friend is... Life is short, live life to the fullest. Eat what you want to eat, drink what you want to drink just bear in mind that it's your choice and nobody else should stop you from doing what you wanna do.

"Never trust humans.They change every-time.Trust animals(dog).We can trust good spirits like almighty God(Jesus),Mother Mary,Saints,etc.
All you can do to humans is be a good friend who love,care and help but don't expect something in return.
Assume i have a friend but he's friend is not me...It's hard to find best friends who can trust.If you found you are lucky.So do tests to check who is a real true friend..Eg-Create a scene where you are in a serious trouble you need help.
Don't help your friends in a problem that they need money because you might loose your friendship too.If you help better to keep something ( That is precious than that value you gave)Good for both of u !" Help my questions if you have time.Thank you !
