In Oprah’s Friend’s of Summer email (which btw, my sister has made the cut to get but somehow…I didn’t make the list.  Thank GOD she’s a ‘sharer’), Oprah is lovely enough to share life post-TOWS and pre-everything else. In the note, she says for her school in Africa, “I’m going back this fall to teach a class; calling it Life 101. All the stuff I wish someone had told me about how the world works.” This made me wonder…what’s on that list? What will Oprah teach them? What will she say? As I am sure that she is still working out the specifics and will be for quite awhile…here are the top items that I think might make it to class…

• Love – How to really love yourself first and be true to who you are before anyone else.
• Instincts – How to listen to your internal voice and trust your instincts…and why this matters.
• Learning – How to be open and learn from everything in life around you…and how this can change your life.
• Gratitude – How being truly thankful helps you to move forward into life and never holds you back. 
• AND topics on Life  – Listening. Forgiveness. Respect. Service. Understanding. Emotions. Hormones. Teaching. Being Happy. Being Sad. Letting go. Giving up. Getting up. Always…getting up.. and Karma.

As the days go by and Oprah considers what to put on her class syllabus…I’m hoping that OWN documents it…and brings it to the world to see in a Docu-Series.  What do you say Oprah Winfrey Net?  What a GREAT idea! When’s class and where do I sign up?
