"What are 3 things you think everyone should know how to do"
Fuck if I know.
Just kidding.. sort of.
This could get a little deep (that's what sh..)
Thing number uno.
Everyone should know how to accept and let go of things they have no control over.
It's understandable to freak out after a week of the sky falling, but when everything is plummeting down the toilet, you have to know at some point.. To just go home, take your pants off and laugh about it.
Thing number deux
Everyone should know how to recognize when to let go of someone that is toxic to them.
4 years ago I had to cut my best friend of over 10 years out of my life, because she wanted to see me fail. She was negative about all of things in my life that I was happy and proud about, and the last straw was when she tried to destroy my relationship by trying to convince me that my significant other was doing things that they were not, and told me that it was essentially them or my best friend (her).
I didn't choose her.
She was in an unhealthy relationship with a person that wasn't loyal to her and she was trying to imprint her unhappiness on me.
That's not how you treat people you care about.
Don't let miserable people damage you.
Do I miss having her in my life? of course. We grew up together.
But, where I am in my life, versus where she is, are vastly different places, and I don't think I would be anywhere near as happy or successful as I am now, if I hadn't done something so difficult to benefit myself.
Thing number three.
Everyone should know how to make a bomb ass quiche!
Just kidding. Fuck quiche.
Thing number three forreal though.
Everyone should know how to relax.
When things get overwhelming for me, no amount of running or meditating or eating until I want to barf and pass out in a chocolate induced coma, makes me feel better..
Listening to music and singing by myself always makes me feel better. No matter how good or bad it sounds.
The louder, the better.
You should know what does that for yourself too, because a lot of us are alone when we need comfort the most, it's extremely important to have a back up vice that is safe to bring you back down when things feel like they are too much to handle.
It doesn't matter if it's singing Muppets musicals so loud that your dogs cry, or baking a 3 tier wedding cake just to sit on
(#cakefarts)
All that matters is knowing yourself, and how to heal when you are the only person you can rely on.
TLDR;
Know how to wipe your butt good.
Know how to cook at least one impressive meal for family and/or dates.
Know how to haggle at garage sales.
