"“Respect your elders” but in the sense that you should just keep quiet when you disagree with somebody older than you – turns out many people are awful regardless of their age. Don’t get me wrong, my default is to respect any new person I meet, but when a person has repeatedly shown me that they don’t are about my feelings or even basic logic, I won’t hold back from speaking my mind calmly, even if they see this as disrespectful."

#12 - if you have intelligence and temperament to actually work towards your goals you can be a lot of things that are not directly prohibitive due to your inherent physical limitations. Not many will however, despite ability, spend 10-20-30 years of their lives working towards a singular goal.

The one. About loving work is true though.
If you are already sucked in too far to your job then you will find it hard to notice, it's not more important that your life.
It's just a job.

Roseanna, yeah, loving what you do at work is a bonus, but if it at least gives you the financial strength do do what you _really_ love
you are not necessarily in the wrong job.

#15 If people raise you and try to make you the best person you could possibly be, if they go through your growing up, if the help you on your way in your life, if they just try to be loving and supportive parents, then they ARE your parents. Regardless of any genetic heritage.
I have been raising three children who are not 'mine'. But I am theirs, always will be.
