Ack I'm so sick of trying to get a layout to work for my dumb stupid journal.
Been kinda upset lately so I put this together as a "feel better" list. Couldn't sleep...lol.
Words to live by:
1. Being kind is more important than being right. (This is #1 because I try to use this one the most.)
2. Be an opener of doors for such as come after thee, and do not try to make the universe a blind alley. (Ralph Waldo Emerson)
3. Dare to reach out your hand into the darkness, to pull another hand into the light. (Norman B. Rice)
4. Do not repeat anything you will not sign your name to.
5. The best test of good manners is being able to put up pleasantly with bad ones. (Farmers Almanac)
6. A good man is kinder to his enemy, than bad men to their friends. ***I suppose we all need to work on this one, and I'm embarrassed by the way I act about certain people. It's just that judgemental people unnerve me, but I suppose that by letting it get to me and making my remarks, I'm just as bad as them. I hope I can fix it. But, one can always fix things and become a better person. There's always hope.***
7. Gossip needn't be false to be evil - there's a lot of truth that shouldn't be passed around. (Frank A. Clark)
8. Pray that each day you will be strong enough not to hurt anybody.
9. If you judge people, you have no time to love them. There's always something to be loved.
10. Live each day in a way that will make you feel good about yourself tomorrow.
11. You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you. (John Wooden)
12. Silent company is often more healing than words of advice.
