CPCP: You Have Beautiful Eyeballs

Today's Crosspost comes from Persephone Magazine, my favorite ever online feminist mag. And, yes, I wrote it. We've already addressed the fact that I'm very self-promotional, so get off my beans about it!

Advice for Bebé

I have a lot of pregnant friends (I'm at that age). And as these wonderful women prepare to welcome some beebs into this world, I'm compelled to share my favorite advice:

It is better to be interesting than to be accepted.

It is better to be nice than to be right (although being right may be more satisfying).

It is better to be kind than to be cool.

It is better to be wise than to be smart.

It is better to love than to win.

It is better to care than to cure.

The recipe for a good life is simple, "do justice, love kindness, walk humbly with your God." (Micah 6:8)
