Rules to Live By

Just got one of “those” emails today that I usually delete, but for some reason with the new year starting I guess we all take a look at our own lives, evaluate what we want to change, give up, do better, do more, etc.  And I looked at this list through those eyes:

1. Life isn't  fair, but it's still  good.

2.  When in doubt, just take the next small step.

3. Life  is too short to waste time hating anyone.

4. Your job  won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and  parents will. Stay in touch.

5. Pay off your credit  cards every month.

6. You don't have to win every  argument. Agree to disagree.

7. Cry with someone. It's  more healing than crying alone.

8. It's OK to get angry  with God. He can take it.

9. Save for retirement  starting with your first paycheck.

10. When it comes to  chocolate, resistance is futile.

11. Make peace with  your past so it won't screw up the present.

12. It's OK  to let your children see you cry.

13. Don't compare  your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is  all about.

14. If a relationship has to be a secret,  you shouldn't be in it.

15. Everything can change in  the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never  blinks.

16. Take a deep breath. It calms the  mind.

17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful,  beautiful or joyful.

18. Whatever doesn't kill you  really does make you stronger.

19. It's never too late  to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and  no one else.

20. When it comes to going after what you  love in life, don't take no for an answer.

21. Burn the  candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie Don't  save it for a special occasion. Today is special.

22.  Over prepare, then go with the flow.

23. Be eccentric  now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.

24. The  most important sex organ is the brain.

25. No one is in  charge of your happiness but you.

26. Frame every  so-called disaster with these words 'In five years, will this  matter?'

27. Always choose life.

28. Forgive  everyone everything.

29. What other people think of you  is none of your business.

30. Time heals almost  everything. Give time time.

31. However good or bad a  situation is, it will change.

32. Don't take yourself  so seriously. No one else does.

33. Believe in  miracles.

34. God loves you because of who God is, not  because of anything you did or didn't do.

35. Don't  audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.

36.  Growing old beats the alternative -- dying young.

37.  Your children get only one childhood.

38. All that  truly matters in the end is that you loved.

39. Get  outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.

40.  If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone  else's, we'd grab ours back.

41. Envy is a waste of  time. You already have all you need.

42. The best is  yet to come...

43. No matter how you feel, get up,  dress up and show up.

44. Yield.

45. Life isn't  tied with a bow, but it's still a gift."

46.  Don't sweat the small stuff, it's all small stuff.
