In 2015, I did a daily tweet called #LifeLessonsFromJimmyBufett and I felt I needed to bring them back in August 2017 for a month. The lessons still ring true for me. Just little reminders about life, love, and luck. After all, I do have two lyrics tattooed by the man on me as a reminder how to live life.

Below is what I posted on Twitter. Click the above link to see all of August & 2015 if you’d like.

1. According to my watch the time is now. The past is dead and gone.
2. Who knows why you start, rediscovering your heart but you do it again and again…

10. Just say what you mean, mean what you say
11. Music is the language of the near and distant stars
12. If a hurricane doesn’t leave you dead it will make you strong

14. It’s time to see the world…Grab your bag and take a chance
15. It’s not the tales of Stephen King that I’ve read, I need protection from the things in my head
16. I’ve seen too much not to stay in touch with a world full of love and luck
17. There’s just too much to see waiting in front of me and I know that I just can’t go wrong

26. Once you see that no one really wins, then the magic begins
27. Living large was once the deal, now I watch the stars instead
28. I’m just tryin’ to get by being quiet and shy in a world full of pushin’ and shove
29. I don’t have a dream. It’s just sometimes I know that’s the way I’m supposed to go
