live each day as if its your last. tell your friends and family you love them, help someone for free, smile at a stranger, give something away that just sits in your cupboard and offer the hand of friendship to all you meet. and if we all did this the world would be a happier and safer place

What an interesting question.
If I could choose anything, I would want people to know the truth about our existence - who we really are and what we are doing here. I know I would like to know that and I think that it could put a lot of questions to rest and we could all just get on with other stuff.
If there was 1 piece of information that I possess that I would want to give to the world it would be that the Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything really is 42 - which numerologically speaking translated to rules and structure in relationships. Think about that... the Answer to everything is the rules and structure of relationships.
On a practical note (because not everyone is going for The Answer) I would want everyone to know the best way to get stinky liquid (beer, bong water, etc.) out of rugs and furniture (like your couch) or clothes is to cover the wet area with salt (a lot of it - if you see the salt turn wet, you need more) and let it sit over night, then vaccuum the next day. That little trick has been a real god-send more than once!
Peace!

What knowledge I would find important enough to share has changed from when I was in my twenties, I have discovered through my bumbling forward these lessons-->
1.Find Out that God is real and interested in you.
2.At the end of the day what matters most is not what you earned but who's Respect you have Kept.
3.At the end of the day it won't matter how beautiful you looked
but how beautiful you behaved.
4.At the end of the day will you still feel successful if~SUCCESS is getting what you want, HAPPINESS is wanting what you get~
5.At the end of your life will you leave footprints?
If I can share anything it is the words from a quote of mine~
We are all ImPeRfEct VeSsels,
we all stand naked under our clothes.
We begin the Same end the Same, Birth then Death.
It is what we do with the middle that counts,
love one another as You yourself wish to be loved.
We are all in the Circle Of Life TOGETHER,
Let Us Live Like It!

That truth is always the right path on which to walk.
There is no such a thing as a half truth only a lie.
And there is no such a thing as a positive lie, the real truth no matter how painful or uncomfortable is still the only truth.
Lies are the bane of human existence, they are the reason we suffer as we do.

How to be kind & caring under various circumstances.
It's becoming a lost art in a lot of societal subcultures and the societies themselves. Lip service is often given and a lot of token gestures but not as many true-hearted good samaritans exist in our day and age.
It's also become lost in a lot of 'love' relationships which are mostly built on lust and/or selfishness instead of being kind, caring, considerate, and truly loving.

Learn to accept what's out there, when the evidence is before you. You don't need to "have faith" in a version of life and death that cheers you up. No matter what the truth, you can accept it. And when you do, you'll find that you can affirm it for what it is, a part of what is real, what you were born to experience in the world and larger universe. Great beauty and joy there, great appreciation for the limited time we have to experience life. Make it real.

Take care of yourself first because there will not always be someone there to do it for you.

Nam Myoho Renge Kyo... It is called the Mystic Law. According to Nichiren Daishonin, "Its words are the reality of life, and the reality of life is the Mystic Law (myoho)."
I have found that by attempting to understand and to practice the Mystic Law that I have had more benefits and proof of its effectiveness than I could imagine was possible!! really!
