First Stop: Surround yourself with those who make you happy. Because life is just too fucking short. As Bob Dylan would say:

"Be groovy or leave, man.

"


Second Stop: Love is cruel, and everyone at sometime in their life plays the fool.

“You can never be wise and be in love at the same time.”

Third Stop: The media lies.

"A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall means something's gonna happen. In the last verse, when I say, 'the pellets of poison are flooding the waters,' that means all the lies that people get told on their radios and in their newspapers."


Fourth Stop: Humility is a truly great quality to have. The strongest people I know have shown it in the quiet corners of the day when no one was watching.

"I think it's wrong for a person to talk about themselves. A person's life speaks for itself. If you've done good things people will spread the news, and if you've done bad things people will spread the news too."




Fifth Stop: You can write a poem and be a poet or...

"You don't necessarily have to write to be a poet. Some people work in gas stations and they're poets. I don't call myself a poet because I don't like the word."



Sixth Stop: Money isn't everything.

"You can have the best there is. But it's gonna cost you all your love. You won't get it for money."


Seventh Stop: Keep that inner child inside of you, forever.

"I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now."


Eight Stop: The friends that are for life are the ones that are always by your side in the worst moments of your life and the friends who leave:

"got a lotta nerve to say you are my friend. When I was down you just stood there grinnin'."


Ninth Stop: Pain really is beauty.

“Behind every beautiful thing, there's some kind of pain.”


Tenth Stop: Life is like a train. On the journey, you lose yourself and yet find something new about yourself. We all get lost sometimes.

"Don't say I never warned you when your train gets lost. "

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).
