Things they tell you before you were born

 (in case you were wondering why a lot of this stuff seems vaguely familiar)

 1. Life will bump up against you & it'll be awhile before you stop taking it personally but the sooner you do that, the easier it gets.

 2. It's all about Love. Even the parts you decide are really hard.

 3. You're not going to have to do this alone, but you're going to take awhile to figure that out, too, especially if you end up in America.

Things they don't tell you before you were born (because, most likely, there are quotas & they don't want a lot of people backing out at the last minute)

 1. Everything good we're telling you you're going to forget & you'll only start to remember once you give up acting like you know what you're doing This can take a long time.

 2. You're going to end up with people who do crazy stuff, but who act like it's normal & you, who just wants to have fun being alive, have to go along with it so they'll feed you. After a few years like this, you'll start doing the same crazy stuff. (Obviously, we're still working out the kinks.) 

3. There'll be so much cool stuff to play with it'll take you awhile to settle down. There's a good chance we'll lose you along the way to some of those things. It's OK. You just die & then we'll tell you everything all over again & we'll all keep our fingers crossed & hope it goes better the next time.
