[rob16584 42]

I came across this on my travels and thought i's share it...

• Life isn't fair, but it's still good.


  
• When in doubt, just take the next small step.
  
• Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.


  
• Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.


  
• Pay off your credit cards every month.
  
• You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.


  
• Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
  
• It's OK to get angry with God. He can take it.


  
• Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck.


  
• When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
  
• Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.


  
• It's OK to let your children see you cry.


  
• Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
  
• If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it.


  
• Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.


  
• Life is too short for long pity parties. Get busy living, or get busy dying.
  
• You can get through anything if you stay put in today.


  
• A writer writes. If you want to be a writer, write.

  
• It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.


  
• When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer.
  
• Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special.


  
• Overprepare, then go with the flow.


  
• Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple.


  
• The most important sex organ is the brain.
  
• No one is in charge of your happiness except you.
  
• Frame every so-called disaster with these words: "In five years, will this matter?"


  
• Always choose life.


  
• Forgive everyone everything.


  
• What other people think of you is none of your business.


  
• Time heals almost everything. Give time time.


  
• However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

  
• Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.
  
• Believe in miracles.
  
• God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
  
• Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.


  
• Growing old beats the alternative - dying young.

  
• Your children get only one childhood. Make it memorable.

  
• Read the Psalms. They cover every human emotion.
  
• Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.


  
• If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else's, we'd grab ours back.


  
• Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.


  
• Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.


  
• All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.


  
• Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.


  
• The best is yet to come.
  
• No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.


  
• Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.


  
• If you don't ask, you don't get.
  
• Yield.


  
• Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift...
