Farewell

This time comes every year. We say goodbye to one year and welcome the next. We make promises to ourselves in the form of resolutions that set us up for quilt within 30 days (max). And so it goes.

I try to live by a few simple rules (for lack of a better term)..so here goes!

#1...treat others as you would treat yourself (or your Mother)

#2...don't judge (this is God's work)

#3...before you "go off" on someone try and think what may be going on in their world...key word...try.

#4...don't wait until tomorrow...it may not come. The present is the only time we have to work with.

#5...be the peacemaker and not the troublemaker. This one is VERY difficult in some situations....good luck.

#6...let the bad things go and get rid of negative people and relationships when you see that you cannot change them.

#7...be charitable

#8...treat yourself...no one else will do it as well as you will.

#9...do not mistake confidence for arrogance.

#10...only you are responsible for your happy...find it.

These are the "rules" I try to live by...I am a long way from perfect...but I have become a happy, confident and very human being over the past years. I hope this will help someone in some small way.
