Life Lessons Learned with Stick

1. Change does not happen instantaneously. It takes time. It takes patience.

2. There is a reason I can neither dance, nor do triple jump, nor play soccer, or the drums, and its the same reason I'm struggling with standard driving. My brain and my feet are not connected. I'm willing to have tests done to prove it.

3. Its always good to have a backup plan, especially when you're facing mountains in your life #emergencybrakelove #hills

4. There is nothing okay about 1st or 2nd gear. What's that about an object in motion? A car in 3rd gear will remain in 3rd gear so help me God.

5. Prayer is essential, and having tasks that remind you to pray are good.

6. The people in your life who care enough to pray about the small stupid problems are keepers, because when I actually have issues I know those people will have my back that much more.

7. 4-ways are the answer to everything. I think we should all evolve to have 4-way flashers on our bodies. Caution: Train-wreck coming through. Caution: Not a morning person. Caution: No idea what I'm doing here, so be a dear and go around.

8. Celebrate the small successes (and force the people around you to celebrate them too.....even if those people are children whose lives you have repeatedly put in danger)

9. Losing your cool doesn't solve problems it makes them worse

10. Lastly, don't take your blessings for granted. Especially if those blessings take the form of a beautiful automatic car.
