FROM TODAY'S READING (12/2/2015)...
SEVEN CARDINAL RULES OF LIFE...
1. Make Peace with Your Past so it does not spoil your present...Your past does not define your future – you actions and beliefs do.
2. What others think of you is none of your business...It is how much you value yourself and how important you think you are.
3. Time heals almost everything give time, time...Pain will be less hurting. Scars make us who we are, they explain our life and who we are, they challenge us and force us to be strong.
4. No one is the reason for your own happiness, except you yourself...Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside.
5. Don’t compare your life with others’...you have no idea what their journey is about. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we would grab ours back as fast as we could.
6. Stop thinking too much...it’s all right not to know all the answers. Sometimes there is no answer, not going to be any answer, never has been an answer. That’s the answer! Just accept it, move on. Next!
7. Smile...you don’t own all the problems in the world. A smile can brighten the darkest day and make life more beautiful. It is a potential curve to turn a life around and set everything straight.

Proverbs 3:13-18 (NLT) Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding. For wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold. Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. She offers you long life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left. She will guide you down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying. Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly.
