"Ten More Commandments "
1. Thou shalt not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.
2. Thou shalt not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.
3. Thou shalt not cross bridges before you come to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.
4. Thou shalt face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.
... 5. Thou shalt not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows.
6. Thou shalt not borrow other people's problems. They can better care for them than you can.
7. Thou shalt not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, for it is forever gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now!
8. Thou shalt be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear different ideas from your own. It is hard to learn something new when you are talking, and some people do know more than you do.
9. Thou shalt not become bogged down by frustration, for ninety percent of it is rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.
10. Thou shalt count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to a big one!

Words of Wisdom

If you're headed in the wrong direction, God allows U-turns.

When the tides of life turn against you
And the current upsets your boat
Don't waste those tears on what might have been
Just lay on your back and float!
(Ed Norton - The Honeymooners)

When you're having bad dreams, turn your pillow over. The good dreams are on the other side.

A careless word may kindle strife
A cruel word may wreck a life
A timely word may level stress
A loving word may heal and bless

Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.

No man ever got lost on a straight road

The most essential element in any home is God.

A friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.

Don't be unhappy if your dreams never come true -- just be thankful your nightmares don't.

Don't become discouraged. It may be the last key in the bunch that will open the door.

I TOOK YOUR PLACE

Another nice and inspiring story that I have read this morning from postmyprayer.com and I want to share this to you. Please take time to reflect on the message of the story.

One day, a man went to visit a church. He arrived early, parked his car, and got out. Another car pulled up near him, and the driver told him, "I always park there. You took my place!"

The visitor went inside for Sunday school, found an empty seat, and sat down. A young lady from the church approached him and stated, "That's my seat! You took my place!" The visitor was somewhat distressed by this rude welcome, but said nothing.

After Sunday School, the visitor went into the church sanctuary and sat down. Another member walked up to him and said, "That's where I always sit. You took my place!" The visitor was even more troubled by this treatment, but still said nothing.

Later, as the congregation was praying for Christ to dwell among them, the visitor stood, and his appearance began to change. Horrible scars became visible on his hands and on his sandaled feet. Someone from the congregation noticed him and called "What happened to you?" The visitor replied, "I took your place."

For how long my love will last

If my heart will go on forever

Anyway.....

People are often unreasonable and self centered,
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives,
Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you,
Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous,
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow,
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough,
Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God,
It was never between you and them anyway.
-Mother Theresa-
