    “Don’t be a dick, be a dude.”

    No idea what it’s from but a friend of mine used to say it to me all the time.

    “It’s going to be ok”. Because the vast majority of the time things are! It might take a really long time to settle, it might be really rough but things do pass. Life gets OK again

    A rising tide lifts all boats.

    I do what I can to promote advancement and share knowledge with my peers.

    You have to take care of yourself, because noone else will. As in trust yourself, and don’t rely on others to act in your interests. Doesn’t mean act like an asshole, but this is what I have learned so far.

    Treat others as you wish to be treated yourself and be the change you want to see in the world.

    You wouldn’t believe how angry that first part makes people.

    It’s never black and white. It’s always more complicated if you care to look.

    Be excellent to each other and party on dudes.

    A good reminder to be kind and enjoy the time I’ve got.

    “Fuck Off!” /s But seriously it’s “Always be yourself, all the time. Don’t care what others think of you.” There will be many times in life when others make it hard to be yourself, if you stick with it, you will always be able to respect yourself for being authentic and honest. And other people’s opinions are just that, opinions. And trying to live up to someone else’s idea of who you should be is a waste of time. Live up to your own expectations of who you are.
