Features \page 9 On The Lighter Side by Jenny Savage Here I am again "On the Lighter Side." But this time there is a slight twist to my article. It's not really going to be a satire, but more like a lesson on life! In my years at Salem my life has changed a lot, in some ways for the better, in some ways for the worse. But I have learned a very important aspect of life that can't be overlooked: LIVE LIFE TO THE FULLEST!!! It is my own personal philosophy on how to get the most out of your life so, here goes. The first stage of my philosophy is to not let the little itty bitty things get you down. So, your boyfriend hasn't called in two weeks. So what, there are other fish in the sea. We all know that this little factor does get us all down at some point in our lives, but we must go on, remember we are women now! Move on to another boy (or should I say man?) and get on with your own life. Here is another possible depressing situation: you have a paper due tomorrow and you have not begun it. -Well ladies, don't get depressed or take your anxiety out on others, after all, it is your own fault. Do the paper, get it over with and try not to do that to yourself again. You see, life is too short to let these small instances get you down in the dumps. I am sure that we have all had our share of problems with our various friends. Well, you take the first step to work things out even if you know deep down in your heart you shouldn't. Here at Salem, we form very special friendships and relationships that need not be taken for granted. As an alumna once said , "It is chance that makes us sisters at Salem, but hearts that make us friends." What I'm tr)nng to say is that we should not take advantage of our friends. Also, always remember that things could be worse. We are all alive and kicking; we have roofs over our heads; we have enough food for ourselves to feed an army; we have friends; we have been given the chance to receive a college education; we have clothes to keep us warm, and we have the chance to do anything we put our minds to. Many people are not as fortunate as we are, and we must not take advantage of these luxuries that have been given to us. We all need to learn to appreciate the lives that we lead and to not take advantage of them. If you stop and think about it (Girls, this is sort of morbid) you may not know when you won't be around to live your life the way you want it to be. We are all brought into this crazy world to enjoy the life that we have. Things may get out of control and hectic at times, but always remember that life is too short to let it pass us by and regret the way we lived it. Always remember what you have and not what you could've had. rinp S,nlRmiie Staff would like fo wish you and your parents a wonderful weekend! wwsow Tizn/vs The comer of Brookstown and Broad St. open.
