    This list has been falsely credited to Andy Rooney. He is not the author, rather it is a compilation of many from age 5 to 95. (Snopes)
    I've learned that~

    (continued from last week....)

    ~everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile.

    ~there's nothing sweeter than sleeping with your babies and feeling their breath on your cheeks.

    ~no one is perfect until you fall in love with them.

    ~life is tough, but I'm tougher.

    ~opportunities are never lost; someone will take the ones you miss.

    ~when you harbor bitterness, happiness will dock elsewhere.

    ~I wish I could have told my Dad that I love him one more time before he passed away.

    ~one should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them.

    ~a smile is an inexpensive way to improve your looks.

    ~when your newly born grandchild holds your little finger in his little fist, you're hooked for life.

    ~everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it.

    ~the less time I have to work with, the more things I get done.
