1. Love may be forever but life is
not – make the most of your time together.
If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus one day, so I
never have to live without you.
2. You can’t underestimate the value
of anticipation.
‘Well,’ said Pooh, ‘what I like best – ‘ and then he had to stop and
think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a
moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but
he didn't know what it was called.
3. Don’t make things more complicated
than they have to be.
It’s more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult
words but rather short, easy words like ‘What about lunch?’
4. Be proactive in making and
maintaining friendships.
You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come
to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
5. Simple pleasures can make all the
difference.
Nobody can be uncheered with a balloon.
6. There’s no shame in acknowledging
your limitations.
‘Pooh,’ said Rabbit kindly, ‘you haven't any brain.’
‘I know,’ said Pooh humbly.
‘I know,’ said Pooh humbly.
7. The future won’t always take care
of itself – you need to keep an eye on it.
Always watch where you are going. Otherwise, you may step on a piece of
the Forest that was left out by mistake.
8. Inspiration, creativity
and ingenuity are gifts we receive when we are open to them – and for which we
should be grateful.
Poetry and Hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get
you. And all you can do is go where they can find you.
9. You can find meaning in
surprising places, even if you’re not looking for it.
Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to
watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know
everything there is to be known.
