7 Life Lessons from Charlie Brown

November 18, 2014 By Talya Tate Boerner

There are many life lessons to be learned from Charlie Brown. For starters, Charlie Brown is certain proof that a little chevron goes a long way.

Seriously, am I the only person who thinks we’ve gone a little overboard on the chevron look? Don’t get me wrong, I do have one zig-zag blouse, and I love it.

But…

IT IS EVERYWHERE!

And not only that, do you remember when we called the pattern zig-zag because Chevron was known as a gas station? I do. Because I’m oldish.

The fashion of Charlie Brown is only one such lesson. The Peanuts gang taught us many life lessons. Here are my favorites from A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. We would all do well to remember them.

Mark your calendar! Next week, ABC will air A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving on Wednesday, November 26 at 7:00 Central. Yay.
