Dear Lizzy

What I've learned thus far
This week's column is a bit different than normal. Instead of answering questions, I'm presenting bits of wisdom that I've learned the hard way. You will apply none of this advice to your own life until you have already gone through the situation and worked it out for yourself. With luck, however, this will help you work it out more quickly, or give you affirmation that your conclusion was correct.
