Thoughts of a 22 Year Old Male

Do you ever wonder what thoughts go through the minds of your children? I have and now thanks to Facebook, I can view a few of those. It seems every week, my son puts a thought out there for all to see. I call them David-isms. Here are a few choice ones--some profound and worthy of inclusion within our journey:

• Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't and believe that everything happens for a reason. Live with no excuses and love with not regrets.
• If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it.
• Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
• Some people say life is short. Is there really anything longer that you are going to do while you are here?
• The glass is neither half-full nor half-empty: it's twice as big as it needs to be.
• Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't.
• Ever wonder if illiterate people get the full effect of alphabet soup?
• I was told today that I should date more, get a girlfriend, get married and that I should listen to the motab instead of devil music. To which I responded "No I don't think so." No matter what I say, it draws controversy. It's sort of like the abortion issue.
• You are only young once, but you can be immature forever.
• Sometimes people put up walls, not to keep others out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.
• Jesus is coming...Look busy!
• God determines who walks into your life....it's up to you to decide who walks away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.
• I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do drugs. I play video games, which I think is a far superior addiction to any of those other ones.
• Have you ever noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, but anyone going faster than you is a maniac?
• Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.
• If you want to be loved by somebody who isn't already in your family, it doesn't hurt to be beautiful.
• "I'm just a love machine and I won't work for anyone but you"....what a great song!
• David wishes that life was simple.
• You can never get enough of what you don't need, because what you don't need won't satisfy you.
• When you go into court you are putting yourself in the hands of 12 people that weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty.
• Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?
