This list is very similar to a list I recently wrote when I was thinking about my own personal truths/purpose in life.
With the following exceptions:
#8, Not sure exactly what you're specificially referring to, but I do like to get wet... especially if it involves playing in the rain.
#10, not in my list, but I whole heartedly agree! Yum.

I agree with some of the above posters who have mentioned the contrast between 'ideals,' 'rules,' and 'guiding concepts' in life. It can be hard to articulate these things without feeling like you're oversimplifying, but at the same time, the exercise itself is very valuable. I think simply being able to articulate and examine what you believe to be life's pervading truisms is what creates the momentum for the next stage of growth and understanding.

Keep it up everyone, there are great wisdoms here...
