 Re: What is the best advice you ever received?  
"Pick your battles."  It took me 30 years or so to realize why, but I've started to do it, and it's so worth it.  So many less headaches.

 Re: What is the best advice you ever received?  
Not really advice, but more of a saying that really means a lot to me...
  "It's not where you are....
  it's who you are with"....
  Sooooo true

My dad always told me to make sure our couch was comfortable because DH would be spending a lot of time sleeping on it

  never tell anyone where you hid the body
 
    
 
 
       
  my parents are really big on being honest and sincere in life and being proud of who you are always.  never flaunting things, never trying to be someone you aren't etc.
  so every time we'd encounter someone who did nothing but showoff about something, on and on and on. 
  my mom has this Italian proverb that sounds something like  "theres lots of smoke but no fire"
  and most of the time, she was right.
   
  as far as advice from a person, not so much a proverb.
  My grandmother's words ring in my ears for the rest of my life. when we had boyfriends in our teens (15?), she'd say "dont let them take you down the crooked road, you stay on the straight path" It sounded so much better in her Italian dialect and the way she said it   
  and sure enough, hearing her, time after time, I "got it" just from those few powerful words from one of THE most influential people in my life.
  oh I could go on and on.....

 Re: What is the best advice you ever received?  
To allow people to help me. I am such a perfectionist and I feel like if I don't do everything myself, then I did nothing. After I had Ava, I actually took that advice. Best advice I ever took!
