Tell the truth
Begin by beginning
Say good things to yourself
Throw words against the screen like
pick up sticks and see where they fall. Pick them up and do it again.
Look up in the sky, frequently.
Let your dreams settle on your shoulders like rose petals
Call your friends, visit your family and talk to strangers until they aren't anymore. Repeat.

junkpile's rules for life.
