If you have been around
As much as I have
68 journeys around the sun.
Life has taught
Me lot of lessons
This is what I have learned.
From my experience
From my many mistakes
And failures
Apologize for your misdeeds
Avoid negative people
surround yourself with optimistic people
Embrace hope
Embrace love
Reject hate
Believe in yourself
Be kind to everyone
Be optimistic
Don’t be cruel
don’t give into dispair
Remain chearful
Don’t be afraid of failure
Learn from your mistakes
And the mistakes of others.
Do not engage in violence,
Either real violence,
or violent rhetoric
Don’t do
or say stupid stuff
Don’t be Judgmental
Follow your dreams
Learn something
new every day
Love your friends
Love your spouse
love your work
Tell her every day
How much you love her
And how special she is to you.
Live in the present
The past is the past
The future is yet to come
Practice a daily act
Of random kindness
Do good deeds daily.
Practice the yoga of speech
-Before speaking think of three things
Is it true, is it kind, and is it necessary to be said.
It is not true, not kind
And does not need to be said,
Keep your mouth shut
Remember YOLO
You are only live once
Act as if this is your last day
.
Remember what Bugs Bunny said,
"Relax Doc,
None of us get out of life alive".
In the end
Just be thankful
You are still alive
And kicking.
after having had
A long and grand journey
