"Always remember that the future comes one day at a time."

Reminders.... Mood
Tuesday, September 8, 2009 | A Positive story

I am trying to concentrate on the following -

 

1 - Keep my head up and my eyes straight ahead so that I can see all the beautiful things around me.

 

2 - Say "I love you" to my family every day so that they know how much I care about them (even if I feel it is not returned).

 

3 - Be grateful that I am healthy.

 

4 - Remember that the glass is half full and never think of it as half empty.

 

5 - Consider myself blessed that I am strong and have brought myself through the worst time of my life (with the help of many).

 

6 - Be grateful that I am financially sound, or at least a lot better off than some.

 

7 - Be grateful that I have friends and family that listen when I am a pain in the ass.

 

8 - Smile, smile, smile

 

9 - Help others as much as I can until I think that they have to begin to help themselves.

 

10 -  Keep looking for the contentment and peace that I would like in my life.  It must be out there!

 

My 10 commandments.   I am sincerely going to try to keep them!

 

Peace and Love to all -

Kathy

    It is a keeper list that I also need to remember! I think I will print it and hang it on my fridge! Thanks Kate!

    Thanks for sharing these - a lot of very helpful food for thought. Perhaps just keeping these will, in fact, provide us with some of that peace and contentment and even happiness. Thanks again.
