Things to Live By

[hlndr]

I met this guy while I was in Albuquerque and he has a motto he lives by everyday. He said listen carefully and live by these 4 rules:


Drink, Steal, Swear, & Lie.


I was shaking my head no, but he then told me to listen while he explained his four rules. So here they are:



a.. Drink from the "everlasting cup" every day.


b.. Steal a moment to help someone that is in worse shape than you are.


c.. Swear that you will be a better person today than yesterday.


d.. And last, but not least, when you lie down at night thank God you live in America and have freedom.

The only time wasted is when we spend time regretting what might have been...

I have a plaque by my front door that says "Sew Seeds of Kindness." It's a common saying, but it acts as a reminder as I'm coming home or going out to always try to be the better person.

I totally agree!
You reap what you sew. What comes around goes around. I say it's better to do it right the first time rather than have to 'peat and repeat until you get it right....for every action there is a re-action. And sometimes it's not always pleasant to get the results of that action. ( Most of the time, I was rubbing my sore hiney growing up.)

So, Pray, help, Do, Thank......You're sooo right.

Here's a thought, one I believe fits well when used to inspire people to donate or simply reach out whenever possible: What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other. by George Eliot, 1819-1880 English writer and poet.
