To stand very still and walk backwards.
I did, and soon found out that where i had been was on a snow covered mountain top, 4 ft over the edge on a snow and ice overhang. Had i stayed there or walked further would have fallen at least 1000ft.....
My mate saved my life that day and was the best advice ever given....

Live your life for yourself, not for others!
I followed the instructions. They were from my mom!
Another of my favourites, from my mom is:
If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. And people wonder why I'm so quiet. LOL

It is the journey, not the arrival, that matters most. It refers to life. And yes, I listened.

Do unto others as they would do unto you, "But, do them first!" My Irish Dad used to say that to me. And, sure enough, I haven't been screwed lately!

Life isn't a rehersal. It's better to regret what you have done than what you haven't.
