Mine:

Don't move away from family. There's no there there.

If your mate doesn't have your back, leave. Give them a heads-up and 90 days. That's it.

Consider going to church. I'm considering it. I've been wrapped around the axle my whole life about whether it's "true". I'm starting to think that that's missing the point. If nothing else, watch the South Park Mormon episode--that really turned my head around.

What if your family doesn't have your back?

That seriously sucks. During periods of my life, my "family" has sometimes included in-laws, friends, and maybe church. Even a shrink occasionally. Work with what you have. Everyone deserves people that support them.
