  • Keep the innocence and childlike love for the world, but don’t be naive and get taken advantage of.
  • Teach your children how to navigate the world, but keep them from being exposed to too much, too young.
  • Have a sense of humor, but don’t be mean or negative!
  • Don’t take things too personally, but stand up for yourself.
  • Keep a tidy house, but don’t get too caught up in appearances.
  • Believe in yourself and have confidence, but don’t be too cocky.
  • Don’t spoil your kids, but give them a better life than you did.
  • Don’t use drugs, but come have a drink
    with us, and did you take your pills today.
  • Take time to enjoy yourself, but work hard in life at something.
  • Be meticulous and cautious, but hurry up and get it done.
  • Look your best, but it’s the inside that counts.
  • Be independent, but know how and when to ask for help.
  • Build boundaries for yourself, but let other people in your heart.
  • Money isn’t everything, but you need money to live any kind of life.
  • Don’t be afraid if people hate you…
