    As the newborn wouldn't be able to understand and remember sentiments conveyed via language yet, it would be a pointless endeavour.

    If I had to advise a five-year-old, I'd tell them to remember life's magic every day.

    If I had to advise I fifteen-year-old, I'd tell them to learn how to think critically.

    That's probably the point at which you'd start doing the shaking and the police would turn up.

    Shaking babies is an alternative way to dial 911? Freaking sweet.

    Also, I'd tell them don't get shit in your eye, cuz it hurts like a motherfucker and ends up tearing your eye all to shit and then you feel like you have something in there until it heals. (I just came in from outside and the wind blew something into my eye and I just spend 15 minutes digging in my eye to get it out).

    Never turn your back on fear. It should always be in front of you, like a thing that might have to be killed.

    The sense of danger must not disappear:
    The way is certainly both short and steep,
    However gradual it looks from here;
    Look if you like, but you will have to leap.

    Tough-minded men get mushy in their sleep
    And break the by-laws any fool can keep;
    It is not the convention but the fear
    That has a tendency to disappear.

    The worried efforts of the busy heap,
    The dirt, the imprecision, and the beer
    Produce a few smart wisecracks every year;
    Laugh if you can, but you will have to leap.

    The clothes that are considered right to wear
    Will not be either sensible or cheap,
    So long as we consent to live like sheep
    And never mention those who disappear.

    Much can be said for social savoir-faire,
    But to rejoice when no one else is there
    Is even harder than it is to weep;
    No one is watching, but you have to leap.

    A solitude ten thousand fathoms deep
    Sustains the bed on which we lie, my dear;
    Although I love you, you will have to leap;
    Our dream of safety has to disappear.
    -W.H Auden

    Your parents are really vampires, and one day, to become an adult, you must slay them. Only then can your real parents be free.

    if you could advise a baby to grow up to be the best person they are

    tell them to care about everything

    the stupidest shit i do is because i'm only caring about what i want

    if someone had reminded me i might not think a 12 pack was worth the trash to get me drunk

    maybe not
