Five Rules for Life
Laugh Daily
1. No matter what life throws at you, being able to laugh is one of the keys to happiness and a sense of overall wellness. Learning to laugh at the little things is key to being able to move forward.
Love Openly and Honestly
2. If you don’t love with honesty you are living a half life. Tell those you care about how you feel. Love with your whole heart. Don’t hold back. And in return you will allow that same love to be reciprocated.
Respect
3. Treat others with the same respect that you would like to be treated with. Everyone is a human with feelings and deserves respect. If you give respect, you will get respect.
Own Your Actions
4. Accept responsibility for your actions, whether they are actions you are proud of or actions of which you are ashamed. From the smallest action of the day, to the biggest of decisions – own your actions. If you are ashamed of them, learn and don’t repeat them – but still own what you do.
Believe in Karma
5. What you put out to the universe is what you will get back from it. Therefore, it is important to live your life in a way that honors this. If you don’t want an action or attitude directed at you, don’t direct it at others.
hey, where are you and Cali off to this season?….it is around the corner again…..we don’t have plans, yet…..xoxo
I agree 100% with 1, 3, 4 and 5. However, my experience has shown me that too much openness and honesty with the wrong person can be “counter-productive” (wow, that word makes such an emotional subject sound so sterile and clinical). A lot of people are not used to being honest with themselves, much less receiving it from someone else. Anyway, I didn’t mean to be argumentative, just wanted to give a different opinion.
BTW, I liked the double exposed picture of the flower close up and the sky/mountains in the background. Good pic.
Thanks
Can you even imagine what the world would be like if everyone followed these rules!
This is GREAT! I think we all need to print it out and read it daily.
