I'm 21, so that qualifies me to give advice...right?

A little bit ago, I posted a blog about uncomplicating your life. I had found those little morsels of good advice from Bellamumma.com (a fellow blogger).
I decided that I would like to offer some of my advice that I have learned (mostly in the past 2 years or so). It's nothing extravagant or enriching, and most of it probably appeals to most people's common sense. However, I've decided to share my insight's with the world...regardless.

1. Soak in the sun. Go outside for a walk, and get your daily vitamin D. People's obsession with skin cancer is out of control. God would have not put us on this earth if the sun was harmful in moderation.

2. Eat. A lot. Again, this is with moderation. Go to your favorite mexican food place and get your favorite dish. Go to that sushi restaurant and try that new roll. Go to a 5 star restaurant and eat that lobster. Splurge a little bit. If you are doing your daily exercise, eating right most of the time, it will not kill you to have a nacho.

3. Follow politics. I didn't vote when I turned 18, and although I don't care for Obama or McCain, I wish my vote would've mattered. Politics influence your daily life, and although they might not affect it now, in the future it will. With age, comes concern for the well being of others, and I'm so happy that I can go to work in the morning and read the daily news...and enjoy it!

4. Be thankful. You're in school? Be thankful. You have a job? Be thankful. You can travel? Be thankful. I struggle with this on a daily basis, and I've come to realize that not noticing the things around you, is just disrespectful to yourself. I have so much going for me, and it's hard to realize it everyday I'm sure I'm not the only one.

5. Trust. This is one of the hardest things I try to do in my life. It's hard to trust people when you've gone through so much (or even a little). You can't let your past dictate your future, and with that, you have to lay those past experiences aside, and just...go for it.
