In life, avoid the trivial and the superficial. Anchor your life to the things that are good and timeless. Kindness and compassion for others, for instance. Showing love to your friends and family in your regular interactions. Showing love to strangers by way of simple acts. Make these things the foundation of who you are. Love, I believe, is the answer to most of our troubles. Notice that when actual, true love radiates from your heart, all feels right in the world.
