Lessons of Life

"7%"
Written by a 90 year old

This is something we should all read at least once a week!!!!!

Written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of the Plain Dealer, Cleveland , Ohio .

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most requested column I've ever written.

My odometer rolled over to 90 in August, so here is the column once more:

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life is too short – enjoy it.

4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and family will.

5. Pay off your credit cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every argument. Stay true to yourself.

7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.

The #HASHTAG

Have you realised the use of hashtags on social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and the others? Do you know its significance aside being used for fun on these social media? Did you know that a lot of people only use hashtags for its highlighting feature? This, therefore, accounts to the abuse of hashtags...but...hey, do not worry. Get into the fun zone. Just that don't #spam #with #hashtags. Don't over-tag a single post or tweet. (Best practices recommend using no more than 2 hashtags per post or tweet.)

A hashtag is a word or an unspaced phrase prefixed with the number sign ("#"). It is a form of metadata tag. Words in messages on microblogging and social networking services such as Twitter, Facebook, Google+ or Instagram may be tagged by putting "#" before them, either as they appear in a sentence (e.g "The weather is #hot")
