Some things are scientific facts that can be looked up. Some things can't be proven, but we consider them facts nonetheless because they hold such truth in our lives. Of course, they're usually in opposition to someone else's truth. My truth is not necessarily your truth which is okay, because if we were all the same life would be extremely boring. If you need your friends to be carbon copies of you, you should rethink your life. Mean Girls is a movie, not a think tank.
Some things I know to be true...
-The beach is a good place to come to terms with life.
-No one can love you unless you love yourself.
-Using a base coat and a top coat on your nails is crucial to a good manicure.
-It is possible to have a casual, surface relationship with someone you don't like. It's called being a grown up and is required in certain situations.
-A good laugh, a long sleep, a cup of coffee, and salt water can cure most things.
-Excuses make the most stand-up people sound like assholes.
-Dogs throw up, pee, and poop on fabric surfaces over hard, easy to clean surfaces 97% of the time.
-Books will take you places you'll never go in person.
-Saying, "I'm so busy" doesn't make you cool or enviable. It means you've over-scheduled yourself.
-A person's skin color, genitals, age, political leanings, or god don't make them a good or bad person. It's what's in their heart, soul, and mind, and how they act.
-Constant cynicism is tiring. We get it, you're an enlightened skeptic. You're also draining as fuck.
-There are worse things in life than being wrong.
-Not making time for and practicing self care is not selfless, it's foolish.
-Life is not fair and the world owes us nothing except for what we earn.
-There's three sides to every story: yours, mine, and the truth.
-Wrong is wrong, even if everyone is doing it. Right is right, even if no one is.

-Feminism is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. If you believe that, you're a feminist.
-When the snorer falls asleep first, the other person gets no sleep.
-Comparison is the thief of joy.
-Acting from a place of fear will never bring about the result I'm looking for, in any situation.
-There's bad everywhere, but there's also good. It's that way for a reason. We need the yin and the yang.
