My observations

As I have gotten older, I have noticed something in life.

You are going to lose twenty dollars.

Yep, you're going to lose twenty dollars, and it will bother you. You will be aggravated, maybe angry at your carelessness, or just bummed. But, at some point in your life, you'll find twenty dollars. Not that life perfectly washes out, but I try to remember this when little things happen. More importantly, I need to appreciate when accidents of good fortune happen to me.

Here is my grand cosmic list:

You will lock yourself out of your car at least three times in your life.

You will think you locked yourself out five times, but realize the keys are in your pocket.

You will have five flat tires. You will avoid dozens.

You will have two true broken hearts. You will break two.

You will miss a flight.

Your alarm clock won't work on four occasions. You will be glad it didn't work two of those times.

You will be deeply embarrassed once. Then you learn to deal with it.

Feel free to add to list, c

Yeah, I'm not very old yet and last year I went to Wal-Mart with a hundred dollar bill from my mother-in-law to pick up some stuff for her...and I lost it lol :):) So a twenty wouldn't be so bad for me!

wow - these are great! You will complain about gas prices to your wife, then she will tell you to get a better job (instead of trading in her V8). You will wonder why your kid(s) act so strange until a stranger tells you how much he/she acts like you. After age 25, you will continue to by clothing "a little larger" than your size because you are still growing...

while young you will consume more beverages than your body will allow you, when older you will excrete more liquids than you consume.

When younger you see little value in most things. When older you will find value in Most things. (especially in life itself)
