LGBT; What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?

What's the best piece of advice you've ever received? Stories are nice...LGBT; What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?
Be yourself.





When I first met my b/f I was really scared of what my parents would say and how they would react. I asked him what to do and he said those 2 little words which changed my life forever.LGBT; What's the best piece of advice you've ever received?
I had this really sage-for-her-age female friend who was really adorable. She looked and kinda had a bimbo-ish attitude but she was extremly intellegent and witty, however many missed on that cause she was usually rushed to be dismissed as a bimbo. Eventually years after, she really made a good life for herself and everyone was baffled, even more when she scored IQ of 140 on an IQ test.. So anyway, she always took her own advice and when i needed to talk to someone, i always went to her. She told me things like :





a. Everything is simple, it's only as complicated as you make it.


b. always analyze things and find the root of something that is causing a problem before it gets out of hand and spreads to other issues.


c. a c0ck is a c0ck and a cun't is a cun't, you don't need 1092831 sexual partners to have different sex or good sex or even learn how to be good in bed, you just need 1 person and just ask for what you like,





d. cheating on your partner is a big risk, not only for breaking up, but for breaking up for bad sex which isn't worth it.





e. there is nothing wrong with the rules, most of the times you can manipulate them to your advance. Work with what you have, not against it.





there is a big list of sage words of hers that would probably make a book.





But yeah, i'm probably the person i am today cause of her, she really helped me to rise above many situation and many people who doubted me.
Not to take life for granted, to cherish it ALWAYS %26amp; the ones you love. Everything is not guaranteed. I lost my grandparents at a young age %26amp; I hate the fact that I didn't get to say goodbye or tell them that I love them so much! But I know they're in a better place. :((((((((((
The best piece of advice? Hmm. Thats hard. Its not really advice, but one day my mom put a glass in front of me that was half full of water, and asked me if it was half full or half empty. I didnt know what the 'right' answer was, so I said it was half empty. And ever since then I realized that I need to see that glass as half full.
When I was younger, I was so into being smart and doing well in school, my dad told me not to try to grow up so fast. I'm graduating high school in 2 weeks, and I can honestly say if I still relied on my grades for happiness, I'd be miserable.





Also, well, this is more just a repeated phrase I think, but people have said to me not to waste your time being upset, sad or angry because every minute you spend upset is a minute of your life you'll never get back. I've been through bad bouts of depression, times when I was a walking zombie, I couldn't eat, I had no energy, I literally just paced back and forth 1 straight line on my bedroom floor for hours on end. The thing was, there was never even a reason behind my unhappiness, I'm not sure how it happened, but I did a complete 180 and I am, literally, the happiest person most people around me know. Now if I ever have a moment where I think I could be unhappy, I remind myself that life is short, and that anger, sadness, and hatred are wasted emotions.
Well, I am not lgbt. But the best advice I ever recieved said '; life is like a river, ever changing as it flows, and I am just a vessel that travels where it flows, I'll never reach my destination, if I never try, so I will sail that vessel till the river runs dry'; - Garth Brooks.





Everyday choose to chance the rapids and dare to catch the sky.
Well, I can't think of the best peice of advice I've gotten. But, I can think of the best advice I've ever given. Actually, I gave it on this site.





A girl was worried because he family hated her. I told her about a story when I came out to my mom and almost killed myself. Well, I told her that life'd get better. It will.
';Smile';


That's it lol


My grandmum told me that.


She told me to always smile, and not waste a second being sad because nothing is worth wasting my time over tears.


I remember that day too. I was about 7 or 8 and I had fallen and scraped my knee and my grandmum looked at me like I was an idiot.


And she told me to stop crying, start smiling and continuing playing the game and give the boy's a piece of my mind. ( I was playing tag football with her neighbor's two sons)She went all Bob Marley on me lol. So yea keep your head up no matter what, and smile =)
I once told my friend that I wasn't sure if I wanted to adopt because I wouldn't want the child to suffer from discrimination and prejudice. Then he told me that having gay parents is better than having no parents at all.





I know it's not really life changing, but it affected me and quickly changed my mind.
When I was questioning my sexuality, I told one of my closest older friends and she said that being gay should be as easy as being straight and I have to be true to myself in order to be truly happy.
I gave myself to advices that have helped myself.





1. It's only life


2. Life has it's corners, if you're feeling down just wait it out until you turn around one into a different situation and everything can be totally bright again
We never expected anything from you until you told us what you expected out of yourself, now that we know ,never give up because we will never give up on you.





My Mom and Dad.





I love them so much you have no idea. =]]

An acrobat I met in Romania told me to ';live everyday creatively';. The more I think about it, the more it means to me.
