Learn how to say, "I love you" in two different languages other than your own. 5. Teach someone how to read, how to fish, or how to play a musical instrument. 6. Look inside a thesaurus to find new ways to say the same old things. 7. Find three funny jokes and learn to tell them really well. 8. Get a makeover, new hairstyle, or all new socks & underwear. 9. Learn how to say, "I'm sorry" and mean it. 10. Look into the eyes of strangers and hold their gaze long enough to see the insecurity in all of us.
